Description

Come and experience some of the world’s best whitewater rafting on southern Chile’s Futaleufú River!

Boasting internationally acclaimed rapids throughout its length, enthusiasts come to this stunningly scenic part of Patagonia each season for the ride of a lifetime.

Stretching over 100 kilometers in length, the river flows from a chain of lakes high up in Argentine Patagonia through the Andes and down into southern Chile.

We’ll be heading to Rio Azul, one of Futaleufú’s many tributaries, and one of the most scenic parts of the river.

Over the course of our 22 kilometers journey, we will head through a mix of Class III+ through V+ rapids. This is perfect for intermediate-level rafters seeking the adventure of the lifetime.

When we aren’t racing through white and frothy water, we’ll be able to enjoy stunning views of Cerro Tres Monjas and the rest of southern Chile’s sublime scenery.

One of the highlights of the trip will easily be taking on the Terminator, one of the most impressive rapids on the entire river, which stretches for an entire kilometer and promises non-stop action from the very start of our adventure.

When we are done with all the excitement, we will find a more peaceful section of the river and enjoy a nice lunch before finishing off the trip.

Climbing with guide Guillaume was absolutely a highlight of my 2-week Europe vacation. Originally, we were planning on climbing in the Calanques, but the park was closed due to wind and fire danger. Guillaume chose another amazing location (Pic de Bretagne) based on my climbing abilities and preferences and kindly offered train station pick-up and hotel drop off, which I appreciated very much. The multi-pitch route we did was not only fun but also the right amount of challenge, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The communication from the team (Gauthier) was prompt and clear—highly recommend!

Maxine

Luis Silva was a great climbing guide and belayer! He taught me how to do moves that were difficult and encouraged me to try routes that were challenging for me! Because of his encouragement, I managed to complete these routes! I really enjoyed the climbs and completed 8 routes in the Sesimbra/Azoia area. The weather was perfect, no direct sun and cool enough to enjoy the climbs. Explore-Share made booking an outdoor climbing experience in Lisbon extremely easy. Luis, our guide, was fantastic, and the platform’s organization was flawless.

We had Léo as a guide for our day climb in Fonty. We were blessed with a knowledgeable, warm, and instructive guide. Communication with Léo and Ivan was smooth and swift. Explore-Share was excellent in arranging everything for our day climb. The communication was quick, and the platform was easy to use, making our adventure stress-free.

Patrick was a great guide. He took us on an intermediate Via Ferrata at Passo Sella. Renato was quick to respond with any outreach on the Explore-Share platform. The booking process was straightforward, and once Patrick was confirmed, all went well. It was a wonderful experience, and I’d highly recommend the platform.
