Rafting

Rafting or white water rafting is a challenging recreational activity using an inflatable raft to navigate a river or other bodies of water. This is usually done on white water or different degrees of rough water, in order to thrill and excite the raft passengers. The excitement of rafting is all about the sudden gradient rivers, the unpredictable twist and the rapid currents it create. So post monsoon is the ideal season (Mid June to October) where the abundance of water create the right river conditions for the rapids. Water rafting undertaken by Barapole creates a long lasting experience for family, groups and friends which happens to last long.
