Rowing

Rowing is a nautical discipline that has characterised university sport since the early 19th century (the oldest and most famous regatta in the world, the Oxford-Cambridge Challenge, was born in those years). Thanks to special boats, rowers propel boats silently and elegantly across the water.

The lakeside area of Gandria, where the Sport Service course is held, is particularly spectacular and provides participants with an unprecedented view of the coastline.
