    What To Expect

    The sportiest section of the Salzach river leads us from Eschenau near Zell / See to Schwarzach. The river, fed by the glacier regions of the Großglockner, offers sporty white water with high rollers and breakers.
    On this raft tour, the Salzach offers brisk wild water in the
    medium difficulty. After the start, the crew only has a short part of the route,
    to familiarize yourself with the flow character and the commands "on board".
    The "labyrinth", a blocked rapids, demands concentrated attention.
    After the notorious railroad surge, it continues wavy through Lend.
    From the impressive waterfall on the Gasteiner Ache, things get a little more leisurely. Shortly before the exit there are still a few lively sections where no eye is guaranteed to stay dry.

    Frequently Asked Questions (8)

    Q: Will I get seasick on Rafting in Salzach with a state-certified raft guide?

    A: If you have any doubts about becoming seasick on the water, we recommend taking a Dramamine® Motion Sickness Relief tablet the night before your trip. Some people recommend taking it the night before your cruise and then again that morning so you will not feel so drowsy. Read more Feb 2023
