an international reputation for water sports
The Sesia is a river with an international reputation for water sports such as canoeing, kayaking, and rafting. One of the most famous areas of the river is from Piode to Scopa, where the rapids are longer and steeper. It is a well-known stretch for canoeists because several international competitions and the Canoe Kayak World Championships have taken place in this area. But the Sesia and its tributaries also have much to offer to less experienced individuals or those approaching these activities for the first time.
The Sesia is a river with an international reputation for water sports such as canoeing, kayaking, and rafting.
In addition to canoeing, kayaking, and rafting, the numerous well-equipped centers offer simpler activities for beginners who want to venture independently into the river waters, such as inflatable canoeing, hydrospeed, and tubing. Moreover, on the Artogna and Sorba streams, canyoning becomes the highlight, an activity that involves descending rivers and streams alternating between walking, sliding on rocks along small waterfalls, diving, and rappelling inside canyons carved into the rock by water over millennia.
