The Raft Battle 2026
It’s no surprise that the Imst Gorge is a hotspot for rafting in Europe: the route runs for around 14 kilometres along the River Inn from Imst towards Haiming – offering an exciting mix of powerful white water, high waves and calmer stretches where you can catch your breath. An interesting fact: about halfway along the route, the Ötztaler Ache flows into the Inn, causing the water level to rise further – and that’s exactly what adds to the excitement!
