Raft Battle

The Raft Battle is the legendary fun rafting event kicking off the outdoor season. In teams of six plus a guide, you’ll compete against other crews on the Imster Gorge – one of Europe’s most popular rafting routes. Whitewater, adrenaline, and prizes included.
What to expect
Hop in the boat and out of your comfort zone! The Raft Battle is about more than just paddling – together, you’ll fight your way through waves, rollers, and roaring rapids. But it’s not just wild on the water: on land, cool challenges await that will put your teamwork to the test, because — teamwork makes the dream work! And the best part? Every team has the chance to win awesome prizes.
