Yesterday we went rafting at Ursus Adventures with the soccer team, and it was a fantastic experience! From the moment we arrived, you were immediately welcoming and helpful, making us feel at ease. The park is very well-maintained and organized, and the entire staff was professional and knowledgeable. The instructors are highly professional but also very fun, ensuring we had a thrilling experience in complete safety. Special thanks to our instructor Gustavo, who, in addition to guiding us along the Noce River with great expertise, also explained the wonders of the area, making everything even more interesting and engaging. It was definitely an experience we'll repeat and we recommend it to everyone!

"The Wild Baita Adventure"...a beautiful hike with a stop at a mountain hut. Nature...silence...and...snow, with the gift of seeing three eagles in flight. Federico, an expert guide, was engaging in his tales of the forest...a must-do!

Beautiful mountain hike with Wild Baita Adventure and Federico. We set out as a very small group at 10:00 AM and returned at 3:00 PM. The hike lasted about 2 hours. Easy, beautiful scenery, and we talked about animals, farms, and the mountains. Wonderful companion, delicious barbecue, wine, and grappa. A truly unique experience. Worth repeating, even with more snow!

August 30, 2025 Gazing at the starry sky with the expert from Ursus Adventures is an experience we will cherish forever. With Christian as our guide, every question was answered, thanks also to his expertise as a physics and mathematics teacher; every star has a story. I would like to thank URSUS, and especially the very kind Arianna, for they deserve a round of applause. Despite the postponements due to weather and my own personal reasons, they were always attentive and impeccable in organizing and planning the evening. I highly recommend this activity to anyone who wants to experience a night of science and magic.
