Rafting the giarsun gorge

 

The Giarsun Gorge is renowned as one of the most exciting white-water runs to be found anywhere in Europe. The run starts in the village of Susch some 20 kilometers upstream from Scuol. Initially the rafting takes us through one of the most picturesque alpine valleys in Europe. For the first 5 kilometers we pass by the villages of Lavin, Giarsun and Guarda, and below the towering peaks of Piz Linard and Mezdi, running a series of small but increasingly tricky rapids until we arrive at Giarsun.

 

Thereafter the river bed steepens, the valley walls narrow, and the river flows into the Giarsun Gorge. From now on the rapids follow one another in quick succession as the rivers falls through a series of narrowing drops. The excitment and action does'nt let up until we reach the take-out at the village of Ardez some 6km later.
