RAFTING
White water rafting has to be one of the most fun and exhilerating activities that we provide. An adrenalin rush, with periods of tranquility thrown in! Trips can be organised on various rivers depending on the season, water levels, and desired experience. We have the ability to run the standard rafts of 6 - 9 people or the sports rafts for only 2.
You can head out for a day, but the best trips are longer with up to 8 day journies possible on some of the most spectacular rivers in the State, including the majestic Snowy River in Far East Gippsland.
All of your gear is provided and we will ensure that you have some great fun on the waterm safely.

Raft Types
Sports Rafts
Sports rafts look like inflatable canoes and take two people. These rafts work well on lower volume rapids and allow us to have the same adrenalin rush experience on smaller rapids. Team work is still required as the craft does not respond as quickly as a canoe, but they are, on the other hand, more forgiving.
Large Rafts
Large rafts accommodate between 6 and 10 people (including your guide). They work best on larger volume rivers and are happiest with larger graded rapids. With these rafts team work is the key to get the raft positioned and successfully negotiate each rapid. The exhilaration is still there, but some people feel safer in a larger vessel
