Whitewater rafting in Esera and Gallego rivers

Rafting is a fun and challenging activity that involves navigating a river, including whitewater sections, in an inflatable raft. The raft is steered by a specialized guide, while the participants row it forwards. Our rafting trips combine gentle sections of the river, where participants can relax, take a swim and play in the water, with thrilling whitewater where the boat’s crew need to coordinate to maneuver through rapids and around obstacles. The maximum number of people on each raft is between 6 and 8, depending on the size of the boat.

We offer two quite different types of trip, depending on the strength of the water encountered:

• Family Rafting or  Level I (suitable for children aged 6 to 13). Trip length: approximately 2h.
• Standard Rafting or Level II (suitable for everyone over 14). Trip length: approximately 3h.

• No previous experience necessary, simply follow your guide’s instructions both before and during the trip. Good coordination between the members of the crew is essential to keep the raft on course.
• Strength in the arms and legs is of secondary importance.
• Anyone with a basic level of fitness can participate.
• It is essential that participants can swim.

The Natural Park and Canyons Sierra de Guara, where we are based in (Alquézar), is bordered by the two largest rivers in the region of Huesca; the River Ésera is on the eastern side with rafting trips leaving from the village of Campo, and on the western side we find the River Gállego with our rafting base in the village of Murillo de Gállego.

Customers can choose either river for their trip. We advise as to which river will best suit the needs of the group, and also depending on the water conditions.
