RAFTING ACTIVITIES AND COURSES
Advanced Rafting Course in the Aosta Valley
Have you ever thought about becoming a guide? A Federal Instructor will mentor you and certify you to prepare for the Guide III course.
The standard followed is that of the F.I.Raft (Italian Rafting Federation), and a Federal Instructor will supervise you and certify you as prepared for the Guide III course. Certification by a Federal Instructor replaces the entrance exam for the Guide III course.
