The Sella International Descent has become the most popular summer party in Asturias. It is celebrated on the first Saturday after August 2. And its route is about 20 km along the river waters Seals, between the Asturian towns of Arrionda and Rivadesella.
But this decline It is not a simple competition. Thousands of people from all over the world have descended this river in the months from the beginning of spring to the end of autumn. Going down the Sella means enjoying a wonderful landscape and views, and allows you to bathe in its waters or eat and sunbathe on its banks. It can be a very quiet place, but if you have a competitive soul you can also find yourself a rival among all those who are there, to see who makes the descent in the shortest time.
There are many companies that are dedicated to organization from the drops of the river. Normally these start in the morning, starting at 11. And it is not necessary to form a group to go out. It consists of about 15 km, which are approximately 3 or 4 hours including possible stops that can be made. And there is no need to worry about how to return to the starting point, since the companies themselves pick you up in vans at the arrival points.
The rate Per person for this activity is between 18 and 23 euros, depending on the season and the company. But this price usually includes quite a few things: the rental of the equipment, a picnic lunch, a small explanatory course, an insurance for the activity and the aforementioned return trip. A good price to spend a fun and different day with your family or friends.
