Hotel pickup from Mendoza City is included, with kit and briefings for each part. 📋 Key Details Duration: about 9 hours including hotel pickup River: about 8 km, Class II+, around 40 minutes on the water Trek: about 2 hours to Devil's Throat Rappel: guided 18-metre descent Minimum age: 8 🏔️ What to Expect You kit up at Playa Gutiérrez, run through paddle commands, and descend about eight kilometres of moderate whitewater with a support kayak. After you change, you walk the Potrerillos trails toward Devil's Throat for about two hours with a bilingual guide, on rocky dry-river ground rather than a high pass. The walk is paced so you can look at the formations, not rushed to make room for the rope. The day finishes on an 18-metre rappel, with a full briefing and kit fitted before you step back. Water and a snack come with the mountain sections. You return to Mendoza with the same vehicle once everyone is off the wall and the harnesses are packed away. 📍 Location Potrerillos is the working adventure pocket west of Mendoza, where the river, dry trails, and short cliffs sit close enough to combine in one day. You feel the Andes as soon as you leave the city grid: vineyard flats give way to reservoir country, then a river beach and pale hills. The three pieces of the outing stay inside that one corridor rather than spreading across the province. Devil's Throat is a rock and dry-river landscape rather than a high pass, which is why it pairs with rafting instead of a long approach. The rappel wall sits in the same foothills, so you are not transferring to a separate mountain range for the last activity. Mendoza City remains the start and end point. ✅ Prerequisites No previous rafting, hiking, or rappelling is required, but you need everyday fitness and a willingness to get wet, walk uneven ground, and use a harness. The minimum age is eight. Closed shoes are required for the trek and rappel. You should be happy with height on an 18-metre wall and with getting wet on the river. Anyone under 18 should come with a responsible adult. ⭐ Why Choose Us Combination days like this have been part of the Mendoza operation since 1966, so the river-to-trail-to-rope sequence is a known rhythm rather than three last-minute add-ons. Kit is fitted on site for the river and the rope. Briefings run in English and Spanish, and a support kayak stays with… ### Essential information _None._ ### What’s included Hotel pickup within the designated Mendoza City area About 8 km of guided rafting with full kit and a support kayak Guided two-hour trek to Devil's Throat Guided 18-metre rappel with safety kit Mineral water and a granola bar on the mountain sections Professional bilingual guide Personal accident insurance during all three activities ### What’s not included Transport to a meeting point if you stay outside the designated pickup area Lunch Personal travel insurance ### Kit list Swimsuit for under the wetsuit Closed walking shoes for trek and rappel Full dry change, towel, and spare socks Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses with a strap Small backpack and extra water ## FAQs _No FAQs in catalog._ ## Media - **Primary image URL (resolved in app; may be absolute)**: https://adventuro.com/cdn-cgi/image/width=1200,format=auto,quality=90/https://wp.adventuro.com/wp-content/uploads/2026/09/45a5d34b-829a-4c72-a90f-a273b7e7e1fd-2.jpeg - **Gallery image count**: 4 ## Limitations - Availability, exact session times, and final price may depend on the live booking flow. - This Markdown is generated from the same catalog fields as the public HTML page at the canonical URL above.
