"There are a number of rivers in Mendoza where you can practice rafting, but the most known ones are the Mendoza and the Atuel rivers.

The Mendoza river offers grade 3 and 4 rafting, while the Atuel river is ideal for beginners, since it offers grade 2 rafting."

"Valle Grande is a very nice place on the Atuel river within the Atuel canyon and downstream from the Valle Grande dam and lake."
