It's been fantastic. - It's been fantastic. We have gone down the Nalon River by canoe from Las Caldas to Trubia and we loved it. Very well managed and both Ali, the instructor, and Maria are charming. Good people and very nice activity. Super recommended 👌

Excellent experience with family or friends - Fun activity with family or friends, highly recommended, nothing dangerous.You choose if 7 or 14km and go down at your pace without monitors, we went on the October bridge , it did great and although something gets wet is super bearable, in most of the route the river covers little so there is q rowing , there are many areas where you can rest, eat something and observe the landscape or the rest of the canoeists, there are even a couple of chiringuitos in the route . We went with the Enterprise Aipol adventure from Arriondas, all fast and organized. They pick you up at two points and take you back to the starting point by minibus. They offer you free neoprene and there they sell escarpments but with an older shirt of yours it is okay.Very cool the descent to the river by the access ramp and the previous explanations are enough. They give you a jerry can to store your things in, it goes in the canoe (mobile, sweatshirt or food). We took their picnic x 2€ and they put a piece of empanada, bollu pregnant, water and puff palms. Finally we did the 14km in 3h but stopping longer take 4h, we did nothing heavy. We were two parents and two children aged 12 and 14, they enjoyed it very much. The canoes you choose, one person, two or even three, is more fun than one or two. They also allow dogs.

You're rowing backwards. - We went with this Enterprise because my niece told us about it, although there are countless companies that do this tour and for the same price only baria if you want picnic or not. It cost us 15 per person because we were 2 in each canoe, 60 the 4. The departure is from the town of Arriondas you park where you can or leave you, although they have parking. You pay and they give you the life-saving vest and then they give you the oar and a barrel to leave your personal belongings so they don't get wet. You go to the locker room and you can change, my recommendation is that you already fence with the swimwear and crabs or scarps. They give you the explanation of how to cross the river Sella as a maneuver with the shovel and boat and you get in the canoe and cross the Sella for a few hours, that depends on the desire to row you have and the line you take with your partner if you go 2 in the canoe. It's fun, though occasionally it gets heavy on you. We made the short for the time it was not very palatable and that was August to last. At the end you are taken by bus to the headquarters where you return the vest and go to the showers where you can shower with warm water and get dressed and then if you want to take a walk around the town or eat that I recommend you take snacks because next door there is a very large park where there are tables and benches to eat outdoors.

Absolutely dubious - Have paid in advance and received confirmation. When we got there the shop was closed and also by phone you could not reach anyone. I cannot recommend anyone to book there. Wasted half a day off on nothing.

I don't recommend it. - We have been treated badly, forced to stop at the first stop in Toraño, even though it was 13:30 and we had plenty of time to continue the tour until 18:00. They don't want to work or don't feel like it.
