Regional structural trainings in rafting and trekking

BERAT, Albania - Jan. 23, 2022 - PRLog -- Active Albania in collaboration with its partners World Rafting Federation, Montalb, Webgliders, and BLT Podgorica organized two regional structural trainings in rafting and trekking. The purpose of the trainings in the Vjosa river area and between Ohrid and Prespa lake was to provide participants with general education and training in accordance with international standards (UIML & WRF) and best and safest mountaineering and rafting practices.

We supported the University of Sports in Tirana, Faculty of Physical Activity and Recreation to develop training curricula under the standards of the World Rafting Federation. As a result, The Ministry of Tourism and Environment of Albania issued the certificates for rafting guides after the training course provided from the University, contributing to the growth of professional tour guides services and standards.

With the team of Embrace Balkans Adventure, Active Albania redesigned a regional tourism product to respond to COVID-19 including pack rafting, hiking, and cycling adventures:

• To help our guests during our tours to follow and respect safety and health protocols;
• To minimize the carbon footprint of our activities by providing ecological adventures and reducing environmental carbon dioxide emissions;
• Because they love participating, they engage the locals in every segment of our active holidays (https://www.activealbania.com/).
