Thrilling Whitewater Rafting Adventure on East Glacial River


Adventure seekers are in for an adrenaline-filled experience as they take on the East Glacial River, one of Europe’s most exciting and challenging rafting destinations. Classified as Class 4+ rapids, the river promises an intense journey through fast-moving waters, dramatic drops, and breathtaking glacial scenery. Participants are guaranteed a high-energy adventure set against the raw beauty of the East Glacial canyon.


The experience begins at the rafting boathouse, where professional and friendly guides welcome guests and provide all necessary equipment, including wetsuits, dry tops, helmets, buoyancy aids, and rafting booties. Before heading to the river, visitors receive a comprehensive safety briefing and instructions to ensure confidence and preparedness for the journey ahead. Guests are advised to bring only essentials such as swimwear, a warm fleece, and a towel.


Once fully equipped, participants are transported to the East Valley, where the rafting journey officially begins. Spanning 16 kilometers, the route takes adventurers through legendary rapids with striking names such as Alarm Clock, Commitment, Screaming Lady, and the iconic Green Room. Depending on water conditions, the experience may also include optional cliff jumping for those seeking an extra thrill.


After conquering the river, guests are welcomed with steaming bowls of hot soup at the take-out point, offering warmth and comfort after the intense ride. A short return journey brings them back to base, where they can unwind and relax in soothing hot tubs. Combining extreme adventure with comfort and recovery, this rafting experience delivers an unforgettable day on the water.
