Here’s how to get to your rafting tour

 

We no longer drive to the tours with our own buses. Instead, you now have full flexibility when it comes to getting there:

  • By car: You drive yourself to the starting point or to the rafting base of our partner company.
     
  • By bus & train: With the regional guest card or the Guest Mobility Ticket, you can use many public transport options in SalzburgerLand for free – perfect if you prefer to leave the car parked.

 

You’ll receive exact meeting points, travel times, and parking information directly from our partners or at the almlust reception. This way, you’ll arrive at the river relaxed and on time.

How do I book a rafting tour when staying at almlust?

You book your tour directly with our local partners. At the almlust reception, you’ll receive recommendations, contact details, and information on the tour that best suits you.

How do I get from the almlust resort to the rafting base?

You can either drive your own car to the meeting point, or—depending on the season and your card—use the regional bus and train connections with your guest card or the Guest Mobility Ticket. You’ll get exact information about meeting points and connections from us at almlust or directly from the provider.

Do I need any prior experience for rafting?

For the usual beginner and family tours around Flachau, you don’t need any special prior experience. Your guide will explain all commands and safety rules beforehand and will accompany the boat for the entire tour.

What equipment is provided – and what do I need to bring myself?

A wetsuit, life jacket, helmet, and paddle are usually provided by the rafting operator. You only need to bring swimwear, a towel, and a change of clothes. You’ll receive exact equipment details directly when booking or from us at almlust.

From what age can children participate in rafting?

That depends on the river, the difficulty level, and the provider. Many family tours are suitable for children from around 6–8 years old, often when accompanied by an adult. We’re happy to help you find the right tour option for your family adventure.
