Aigüestortes Llavorsí to Rialp Whitewater Rafting

About Aigüestortes Llavorsí to Rialp Whitewater Rafting

The Llavorsí to Rialp stretch of the Noguera Pallaresa River has the most rapids with the first stretch of 44 km being mild except for a rapid named La Lavadora, the washing machine!. This is the first grade IV rapid along the route.

After La lavadora the river is calm until kilometre five where the longest rapids in Noguera Pallaresa river are located. The rapid called Quatre llarg is surely one of the longest rapids where you will enjoy waves and curls.

Half way along the 14km route at kilometre eight the rafts will pass under Gulleri Bridge and lead into a section of the most intense rapids such as La Sirga, La Isla and El Cuatro Español.

Next the rafts pass under Rialp Bridge at kilometre eleven of the route passing through tranquil waters, except for random waves along the way. This final stretch of the river will take you to the end of the rafting tour in Rialp.

Visiting Aigüestortes Llavorsí to Rialp Whitewater Rafting

The day activity has a total time of 6 hours starting at 09:30 in the morning.

Drive to the Roc Roi Activity centre 2km south of the village of Llavorsí where there is free parking.

At the activity centre you will be taken to the warehouse to be issued with a helmet, wetsuit and water shoes. In the Roc Roi Centre changing rooms you can get dressed in the protective clothing. You will also be given a safety briefing at the Roc Roi centre.

Roc Roi will then transport you and the rafts the 2km to the start of the route in the village of Llavorsí. On the bank of the river you will meet your raft guide and be given instruction on how to control the raft and use the oars to manipulate the direction of the raft, working as a team.

Once on the water, the raft guide will give instructions about which side of the raft has to row, left, right or both, how fast and what direction, forward or reverse. Along the route the guide controls the raft all the way to ensure safety and to follow the right path along the river to hit the best rapids.

The route takes about 2 hours to complete in the raft. You don't need to row because the river current will propel the raft along. The oars are for direction control.

This is a 100% safe and controlled environment with an expert guide and is one of my favourite activities.

At the end of the route in Rialp, Roc Roi will transport you back to the rafting centre near the village of Llavorsí to change out of the now very wet wetsuits!

Note: If you want a helmet with a GoPro helmet mount, ask when booking.

What to take with you for Aigüestortes Llavorsí to Rialp Whitewater Rafting

To complete this activity you need to wear swimwear under the wetsuit. It is worth taking a towel for after the activity because you will get very wet and can also swim in the river in designated safe zones that the guide will indicate.

I also took a waterproof bag with a bottle of water inside and some camera equipment that I attached to the raft with a karabiner and cordage. This is not necessary though because the activity starts and ends at RocRoi.
