More activities at Lake Torrassa
The lake offers activities beyond boat rentals, designed to fill a full day without leaving the site:
Pedalos: pedal-powered boat for 2-4 people. No paddling effort required, ideal for a relaxed cruise around the lake. From €26.
Big SUP (giant group paddleboard): an oversized stand-up paddleboard that fits 6-8 people at once. The group has to coordinate paddling and balance. Works especially well with friend groups or families with teenagers. 2-hour rental. From €50.
Inflatable water park: a floating circuit of platforms, slides and bouncy mats on the lake. Children's favourite activity. Available in 30-minute sessions (from €5) or 1-hour sessions (from €8).
Archery: land-based activity beside the lake. 30-minute session with equipment and instructor. Suitable for adults and children. From €15.
All activities can be combined with each other or with kayak, canoe and paddleboard rental. The lakeside setting is designed for spending a full morning or afternoon switching between water, rest on the picnic area and food from the lakeside truck.
