Activity Code: RNRR100
Overview
Get ready for an adventure of white water rafting along North Queensland's Barron River.
Your day starts when we collect you from your accommodation. You will meet your Trip Leader on the coach and will be transferred to Lake Placid, where the fun begins!
Journey to Barron Gorge whilst your guides explain the safety procedures and prepare you for a fun adventure ahead. Upon arrival at the Barron Gorge, your safety equipment and gear will be waiting for you.
After being assigned into your rafting group, everyone will hop on board and be under the instruction of your experienced guide. Together the group will negotiate rapids such the Cheese Churn, Hell's Gate and Rooster Tail. Rapids are generally up to a level of Grade 3.
After an adrenalin pumping rafting adventure, we arrive at Lake Placid where you can relax and enjoy a swim. We then pack up the rafts, change into dry clothes and enjoy light refreshments while previewing the day's action photos. At the end of this great day, we depart Lake Placid and return back to your accommodation.
