Rafting On The Mendoza River – Book Your Adventure Now!

Rafting on the Mendoza River is an ideal activity for adrenaline and adventure lovers. The river is born in the Andes Mountains and flows naturally until it reaches the Potrerillos Reservoir, the area where our adventure will begin.

We will depart from Mendoza towards the town of Potrerillos , to explore the waters of this important open river with a large volume of water and world-class rapids from level II to III + , which are appropriate for all types of adventurers, so it will not be necessary to have previous experience in rafting.

You will have the option to hire a Half-day excursion where you will explore 12 km of river from Campamento Los Árboles in summer and 8 km in winter; or you can choose the full-day excursion with Box Lunch included where you will take a trip of almost 30 kilometers downriver from Cerro Negro, only in summer.
