This 4 mile long fast flowing and technical river contains many fun grade 3/4 rapids.

You will raft rapids like double or quits, surfs up, hey diddle diddle, pop till you drop and white bridge all grade 3/4 providing endless entertainment for all. Groups normally say the highlight is the surfing in pop till you drop!
