SOUTH AFRICA OUTDOORS

DAILY RAFTING TRIP

The trip consists of 45 minutes on flat water with only Grade 1 rapids (very small rapids). This enables everyone to learn how to control and steer the boats. We also have a swimming practice to teach everyone how to get into the boats. We then get into the gorge where we have Grade 3 / 4 and 5 rapids. There are several rapids. Grade 5 is your biggest rapid allowed to be run commercially throughout the world.

The trip will take ±3 hours on the Tugela River and at the end we will have a braai and refreshments  waiting for the participants. Please let us know in advance if there are any dietary requirements,i.e. halaal, vegetarians. Juice will also be provided during the trip.

There will be experienced guides on the river with the group at all times. A safety talk will be given to the participants before the trip. All safety equipment will be supplied by us. We carry a medical aid kit and cell phones at all times, and follow the guidelines of the African Paddling Association.
