Location

The Dolomites are the ideal place for an adventure holiday, from the awe inspiring canyons to their distinctive peaks there is so much to do here to keep the average outdoor adventurer busy for days if not weeks! Madonna di Campiglio sits at 1,522m above sea level in the heart of the Adamello Brenta Natural Park in the Trentino region of Northern Italy. Famous as a chic ski resort where you can enjoy perfectly groomed slopes and Michelin starred restaurants, it is also a fantastic summer destination thanks to its beautiful scenery, and many outdoor/sports facilities and attractions. The nearby river Noce is perfect for both white water rafting and kayaking, while the towering canyons it has carved into the mountainside provide excellent canyoning and tarzaning opportunities. The mountainside provides numerous hiking trails, a selection of mountain huts and an extensive Via Ferrata network – the largest in the Dolomites. The 150 km of marked ski runs known as the Dolomiti di Brenta Ski Area becomes a Bike Area in the summer, and the efficient lift system ensures that mountain bikers can explore the many trails easily. Other activities on offer include golf, tennis, fishing, climbing, and paragliding. The resort itself is reasonably compact, with a pretty piazza, a few upmarket shops, bars and restaurants and a small lake. During your stay you can enjoy the local Trentino wines and produce, including cheese, game and wild mushrooms. Of course as this is Italy you can also expect to find some good wood-fired pizza too! This break is ideal for groups, from stag and hen breaks to company incentive/team building trips and we can tailor make an itinerary to suit your needs.

Do I need previous experience for rafting, kayaking or sailing?

No previous experience is required for most of our watersports holidays, our instructors and guides work with complete beginners as well as more experienced paddlers or sailors. Activities like Dolomites rafting or Croatia sailing and kayaking are tailored to the group's ability, with the necessary safety briefing given before you set off.

Is all the equipment provided, or do I need to bring my own?

All essential equipment, wetsuits, buoyancy aids, helmets, paddles, boats or boards, is provided as part of your package. You'll just need appropriate clothing underneath and a swimsuit. If you have specific gear preferences or your own equipment you'd like to bring, let us know and we'll confirm what's needed locally.

How is safety managed on activities like rafting and surfing?

Safety is central to every watersports holiday we offer, with qualified local guides or instructors, safety equipment provided throughout, and briefings given before each activity. Group sizes and routes are adjusted to conditions and ability on the day. If you have any health considerations, just flag them with us in advance.

What's the best time of year for surfing in San Sebastian or sailing in Croatia?

Conditions vary by activity and destination, with warmer months generally suiting sailing and kayaking in Croatia, while San Sebastian's surf can offer good waves across a broader season. Tell us when you're hoping to travel and we'll advise on the best timing and conditions for the activity you're after.

Can non-swimmers or nervous beginners still take part?

Many watersports activities can be adapted for nervous beginners, with buoyancy aids, calmer sections of water and extra guidance from instructors. Strong swimming ability isn't always essential, but it depends on the specific activity. Let us know your comfort level in the water and we'll recommend the right option for you.

Is there an age limit for activities like rafting or surf camps?

Age suitability varies by activity, with some watersports fine for older children accompanied by an adult and others better suited to teens and adults. Let us know the ages in your group when enquiring and we'll confirm which activities and departure dates are the best fit for everyone involved.
