These are sounding names of obstacles, waves or rollers on the Möll River, which in the Tschochtan section of the river get the adrenaline pumping in the veins of true whitewater fans.
A strong current creates waves and rollers and those who can, playfully move through the kayak course. At the end waits a massive wave named after the female water spirit Rusalka.
White water rafting requires coordination and team spirit - anyone who has once sat together with others in an inflatable boat and fought against the elemental force of the water will not forget this experience again so quickly. That's why white water rafting tours are increasingly booked not only by families and groups of friends, but also for team events or bachelor parties.
Due to the beauty of the gorges, rivers and streams, canyoning has become a popular sport.
By abseiling, climbing down, jumping, sliding, swimming and sometimes even diving, you get through the canyons in suitable equipment. Team spirit and mutual trust play an important role in this sport.
Down the Drau in a rubber dinghy
Experience unforgettable water sports on the Drau. Whether you are an adventure seeker, nature enthusiast or family - the Drau offers the perfect environment for everyone to immerse themselves in the fascinating world of water sports. Explore the picturesque landscape of the Drau Valley from the water. Immerse yourself in an incomparable experience that combines fun and relaxation in the great outdoors.
On a canoe tour on the Drava, things are a bit more contemplative and leisurely. The designation "hiking river" is 100% accurate, because the 55 km long upper Drau valley is one of the most charming and ecologically valuable river landscapes in Europe.
Canoeing is one of those outdoor sports where the focus is on experiencing nature. Rivers and small lakes are used for canoeing in the Hohe Tauern National Park Region.
Water sports on the river are even more challenging, if in doubt we recommend booking a course. Please observe the safety instructions!

At Wakestall, action sports are very important and those who want to chill out afterwards can look forward to the sunbathing lawn or the cozy chill-out area with seating furniture and good sound.
