Although winter is not over yet, there is no shortage of desire for spring. That is why we have to start thinking about how we will enjoy adventure sports.
When the coldest season of the year says goodbye, it leaves behind many snowfalls, so the sports Aquatics come stronger than ever. The thaw will make practices such as rafting the most exciting, where the adrenaline will run through your body and you can have fun like never before.
One of the recommendations that we can make to you from Yumping is that you practice river rafting and what better than on an inflatable raft for 4-10 people. The material you need is very simple and above all practical, since it will prevent you from getting wetter than normal and getting cold (neoprene suit), from getting hurt in a bump or fall ( helmet) or suffer any risk in the event of falling from the boat (life jacket).
It is a safe sport, so your only concern will be to enjoy yourself. It is better if you do it with friends or people very close to you, because then you will have an even better time. Emotions are present in every kilometer, so go with a clear mind and let yourself go.
Don't you have experience? It is not an impediment: you only need to know how to swim, otherwise the guide will explain the rowing techniques or what to do depending on the level of difficulty. This in turn is given by the characteristics of the flow, since the force with which the waters of the river descend is what has the most influence.
What do you have to do before going rafting?
The most important thing, as we announced before, is to know how to swim, since this way you will ensure that in the event of any fall you will not sink, for that the life jacket will help you.
The next step will be to look for a rafting company, with which you can learn what you need for your first time or improve your technique if you are already more experienced. They will provide you with the necessary material, although they will surely recommend that you bring a swimsuit, a towel, sun protection cream... that is, whatever you may need when spending a day on the river.
Your physical condition is not decisive, it is enough that you feel fit to use the paddles and move your entire body along the journey. Maybe the sores will accompany you the next day but... it's worth it!
The last step is...descend the river! Let yourself be overcome by sensations like adrenaline, surround yourself with the sounds of the river, feel the water droplets splashing on your face and walk in a wonderful environment , where nature will shine with all its splendor.
Well, now you have everything. You only need the desire to disconnect from your daily life by practicing active tourism. Dare!
