Kayaking - Bariloche

DESCRIPTION
Those who practice kayaking have a unique adventure: They enjoy rushing downstream along the rivers, looking for white water, challenging the current and keeping up with its pace. The environment becomes a key element in the trip, since the reduced size of the craft enables access to dreamlike places. The intense green vegetation, the pure air and the deep blue of the lake are the main points of interest for those who choose to practice this sport in Patagonia, because they feel in perfect sync with the landscape. Tour or sea kayaking are activities which afford the advantage of moving freely, gaining access to hidden areas, which cannot be reached using other types of boat. Those wanting to practice this adventure activity will be able to choose either a long and intense day or a few hours' journey especially thought for beginners.
