Hydrospeed in Valsesia

Glide down the rapids of the Sesia with your hydrospeed, pure adrenaline at the surface of the water!

Hydrospeed

Hydrospeeding is an experience suitable for everyone, but we especially recommend it to the more adventurous and aquatic types. The craft consists of a lightweight "floating bob," and your motors are special short fins. Before guiding you through the rapids of the Sesia, the instructor will explain and practice all the basic hydrospeed maneuvers with you in calm water, so you can immerse yourself in this adventure in complete safety! Simply follow the current and you'll be dancing among the waves, enjoying the unique thrill this sport can offer. Depending on the river's flow, you can navigate the Classic section or the Sesia Gorges, two very different but equally fun stretches of the river for this sport. Monrosa provides all the necessary technical equipment (a full 5mm wetsuit with specific leg protection, neoprene boots, life jacket, helmet, and short fins) to ensure appropriate safety measures and proper thermal protection. Hydrospeed is the ideal solution for those who want to be the protagonist on the river and experience the descent in a simple and instinctive way.

Frequent questions - Hydrospeed

Yes, rain doesn't prevent you from enjoying the experience on the water and can make the activity even more fun and unique. The trip is cancelled or modified only when weather or river conditions make it unsafe. The Monrosa Rafting center will then contact you to arrange any changes to dates, times, or refunds.

No, no previous experience is necessary; in fact, the activities are designed for even first-time river rafters. Before departure, you'll attend a briefing where the guides will provide you with all the necessary instructions for a safe descent.

Unlike other activities, hydrospeed doesn't require shoes; we'll provide you with fins and boots specifically designed for this activity.

The appointment is at our center at the agreed-upon time. It's not necessary to arrive early, but we ask that you arrive on time. If you'd like to arrive earlier, you're always welcome. We're located in a beautiful, large green area on the banks of the Sesia River, and we have a café waiting to help you while you wait.

Don't worry: we're available to accommodate your needs and, when possible, we can consider date changes or reservation modifications to allow you to participate at a later time. If you wish to permanently cancel your reservation, please review our cancellation policy for full terms and conditions.

Yes, to participate in hydrospeed, you must be a good swimmer and feel comfortable in the water. Unlike other activities where you're primarily accompanied on the boat, in hydrospeed, you're directly in contact with the river and must be able to manage your own movement in the water.

Yes, hydrospeed requires a good level of physical effort. It's a more demanding activity than other water experiences because it involves swimming with fins, controlling your body in the current, and continuously working your arms and legs. It's recommended for people with good physical condition who want to challenge themselves.
