What we'll do
Full Description of your itinerary
You will be pick up from your hotel between 7am -7.30am. Prior to your trip you will be asked to sign indemnities sent through to you on email. Please make sure you sign this document! . Please wear light clothing that you don't mind getting wet - including footwear. Bring sunscreen.
Depending on the season, if doing a Full Stretch rafting you will jump into our jeeps and drive only 5 minutes to the top or the canyon but if its High Water (Half Stretch) rafting you will drive approximately 15km to the river . Once you get to the top of the canyon you will be given a life-jackets, wind breaker if raining, helmets & a paddle if opted for paddle raft. Your head guide will give a full safety briefing. Following the safety briefing you will begin the steep climb down into the gorge, and then along the bottom of the gorge to the put-in point. Once you get at the bottom of the canyon your guide will allocate you some positions & do a practice in a pool first.
The epic adventure will then begin. If low water (August - December) you will start your 26km journey over 19 rapids most of which are grade 4 or 5. Higher water rafting (usually Jan-mid/end March and again June-July) may skip some rapids and overall distance of about 18km & 24km depending on the stretch that you booked as we offer High Water Half Stretch & High Water Full stretch.
Be aware rafting may close April-May - but this is subject to water levels.

Fitness
You will have climb in and out of the steep gorge - you don't need to be super fit at all for this activity, but do need a reasonable level of fitness - just take your time
What to Wear
Nylon swim trunks, swimsuits, river sandals or old tennis shoes are great for rafting. Try to stay away from anything cotton if possible. Hats are good for sunny days and for those rare overcast or cool days a fleece pullover, a wool hat and socks and a windbreaker would be a great way to stay warm. Please note: Cotton WILL NOT keep you warm when it is wet.
