Is it possible to go rafting in the Aconcagua river? Is it too polluted? Are there natural or man-made impediments?
Web
If it is possible can you suggest where you can put your boat in/out?

Hello.
is a pleasure to help them in their adventure experience.
in my quest for information, all shipments made through the Aconcagua River, from the mountains until it reaches the sea.
A web portal for tourism in the region, shows the different activities taking place within them rafting (http://www.quintaregion.cl/region/region02.shtm).
Also I attached some links to make a comparison between an ecotourism business in the area and direct contact with a guide.
- Ecotourism company: here you can check availability and prices of travel packages for groups or tourist.

2. (Http://www.yakexpediciones.cl/eng/Home.asp)
- Particular area guides: has their phone and mail cotact to consult directly with your requests. (Http://www.turismorioaconcagua.blogspot.com/)
Have a good trip.
Bon voyage, Cristián

Thanks, the last link you sent me was the most useful. Cristian put his boat in just minutes from my house. I will have to try it out someday.

The only river near Santiago which has all the infrastructure to do white water rafting is the Maipo River.
