3 hours.
Suitable for people with basic fitness; ability to follow instructions and a comfort in moving water recommended.

A starter, main (typically pappardelle with wild boar or a regional meat dish), dessert and drinks are included at a local trattoria after the rafting.
The tour is not recommended for pregnant travelers; operators request passenger details during booking and can advise on suitability for children or those with medical concerns.
Valnerina’s settlements grew along the Nera valley where Roman and medieval routes crossed; the river shaped trade and small-scale agriculture for centuries.
