How is it practiced?
You and the river
Hydrospeed.
Contrary to rafting, where you are part of a wider system, composed by the raft, your mates and the guide, in the hydrospeed runs it will be just you, the hydrospeed and the fins on your feet against or together with the river.
Living water
If you tried rafting before and you are looking for stronger emotions, or if you like individual and adrenalizing sports, hydro is made for you!
Step by step
As the hydrospeed runs require a step by step learning, you’ll follow a pathway planned for you that will turn the activity accessible to everyone (in good health). Every step represent an activity that you can do in a day.
Ever present guide
You’ll still be part of a group made up by a guide in front of you who will show the right line to take and for numerous groups one or more guides to assist you during the trip.
