Have fun and cool off at the foot of the Picos de Europa on a cano-raft tour down the Deva River or the Cares River!
A sensational sport somewhere between canoeing and rafting, cano-rafting is the perfect way to enjoy the Deva and Cares rivers and their rapids in Asturias. The activity involves paddling down the river in an inflatable canoe with space for 1 or 2 passengers, over rapids a little stronger than those encountered on a simple canoeing trip. So get ready to be splashed and thrilled on this cano-raft adventure at the Picos de Europa, on the Deva River or the Cares River, depending on the season and the weather conditions!
The Canoe Aventura Trophy team will be waiting for you at its base in Panes, just under a 2-hour drive from Bilbao and a 45-minute drive from Potes. Here, you will receive all the equipment you need for your cano-raft tour down the Deva River or the Cares River, and will then be driven to the starting point of the adventure. Once there, you will be off for around 2 hours of white-water fun and refreshment, supervised by an experienced instructor in his own cano-raft. Between thrills and magnificent mountain scenery, you are sure to have an exceptional time on this cano-raft experience in the Picos de Europa!
Whether you are on your own, with your partner, family or friends, cano-rafting is a great alternative to canoeing and kayaking if you are looking for a thrill, or to rafting if you prefer to be in control of your own raft. So, if that is you, or if you are just curious to discover this great white-water sport, don't wait any longer to head to Panes and enjoy this cano-raft adventure in the Picos de Europa, on the Deva River or the Cares River!
