Verona Rafting Tour on the River Adige

By paddling on the water you will experience the rhythms of a bygone past and have direct contact with the heart of Verona: its river, the Adige. Now cut off from the life of the city, for millennia the Adige was essential to its survival and central to its foundation.

This tour combines the excitement of paddling through the waters of the river with the discovery of its past uses. Learn how the Adige was scooped to provide drinking water and support agriculture and used to power mills and wool production. Hear tales of the chain bridge and early navigation, lives of the washerwomen and fishermen, and the tragic floods that have changed the lives of the city forever.
