fare rafting


Explanation:
... provare l'esaltante sensazione di fare rafting/white water rafting sul fondo di un canyon...

Actually, the English phrase "white water rafting" is used in Italian, too, and means "rafting sulle rapide". However, if you don't need to be as technical as that, "rafting" should suffice.

Cheers
