In
Canoa...
Water
courses that flow through Le Marche are mainly streams. They are much
loved by canoeists when in spring they are filled by the waters of melting
snow. The difficulty of the descent is much due to the local water
conditions.
Beautiful sceneries open to those, who after a proper training, will
decide to entrust themselves to the flowing waters.
Sentino
and Esino rivers are perfect for water sports. Their courses are in fact
characterized by both quiet and tumultuous spots. A wonderful experience
could be flowing on the Sentino through
the Gola , into the Esino river and then all through Gola Rossa and
finally get to Serra San Quirico.
Gola
della Rossa and Frasassi and Comunità Montana Esino-Frasassi, in
collaboration with Canoa Club Marchexplorer has provided the main landing
stages with informative boards and river maps. Those who are not trained
yet, can do some experience in the small Lago Fossi. (not far from Genga).
Metauro
river after a 110km journey flows into the Adriatic sea near Fano in the
Pesaro Urbino district. The width of the river varies from areas in which
it is just a few meters (along Forra di San Lazzaro) to 300/400 meters in
the Tavernelle lake. Landing stages are at Urbania and Fermignano.
The
most challenging route is the Tronto river. The sights that can be enjoyed are wonderful
especially in the Arquata del Tronto area.
