Early in the morning, a driver and an accompanying SAK guide will pick you up at the lodge to head southwest, on the way to Potrerillos Lake, about 45 minutes from Mendoza City. There the whole family will enjoy an exciting rafting experience on the Andes rapids for approximately 1 hour (12 km), with rapids of level 3/3+. Once you have finished rafting down the river, you will have free time to buy lunch at the buffet inn, located at the foot of the Cordón del Plata and next to the Mendoza River. The unforgettable scenery will be the necessary calm to get ready again to live the adrenaline of the Canopy with 6 sections, at heights of 30 to 80 meters above the Mendoza River. In the afternoon, you will return to the city of Mendoza. We recommend this excursion from October to May.

Essential items

We suggest you to bring these items for personal use to make your excursion perfect:

– Personal care items (lip balm with sunscreen, sunscreen SPF50, antibacterial gel/wipes, insect repellent).

– Special clothing: cap or hat, sunglasses, comfortable and warm clothing (fleece/sweater, windbreaker), footwear appropriate for the activity.
