What will you do?

Leaving from Bariloche we head south on Route 40 for approximately 70 km, a paved road where you can enjoy the scenery of lakes and mountains.

After crossing the Villegas River, we will take a 27.5 km detour on a gravel road into the Manso Valley until we reach our base camp, the Tierra Aventura Campsite. Here they will be waiting for you with a delicious breakfast so that you do not lack energy to paddle.

After breakfast, the guides will help you to get equipped, this activity includes neoprene suits so you can get wet from head to toe. Once equipped, the van will take you a short distance to the embarkation point. There you will receive a safety briefing before boarding the raft to begin the adventure.

You will navigate a 12km section of the lower Manso River to the Chilean border. In this part of the river the rapids are more powerful and adrenaline-filled. During the tour you can enjoy the natural beauty of the Manso canyon and a few spectacular rapids:

El Cajón de Terciopelo, Agujero de Ozono, Gritá y doblá a la izquierda, el Tobogancito, Garganta Profunda, Éxtasis, Huevo Revuelto and Colmillo. The brave ones will also have the chance to swim in the backwaters! The guides will encourage you to play in the water, but it is not mandatory.

When we reach the border with Chile we will finish the navigation. After taking off our equipment, drying off and changing, we will return in the van to the campsite where we will have some time for lunch. At the end of the rest time and lunch, we will return to Bariloche.
