Description:

Experience the thrills of whitewater rafting with an adrenaline-charged ride along the spectacular Yarra River in Warrandyte. Spend half of your day paddling through waters, spotting local wildlife like koalas and wallabies and taking in Melbourne's lush surroundings.

Meet your guide at Warrandyte for a brief training session. Learn different paddling techniques as well as some safety information before you put on your rafting equipment and life vests. After soaking in these pointers from your experienced guides, get in your kayaks for a flat water skills session. Once you can steer the boat, you're ready to head downstream and tackle the rapids.

On this pulse-pounding whitewater adventure, set off with your instructor down the rushing Yarra River. Maneuver and ride the challenging Grade 2 rapids passing through the peaceful bush lands. Once in a while, you hit vortexes of swirling foamy water and natural ramps over the course.

While kayaking, spot native animals like koala, wallaby, and even platypus. If you're lucky, see ducklings following their mom and a gray-headed flying fox soaring through the clear air. Your whitewater kayaking adventure concludes as you reach the township of Warrandyte.
