Take the Rafting Challenge!
White water rafting courses and tours are typically available in many regions that cater to rafters of every skill level – from the beginner to the veteran – with each rafting course listed on a five-level “grading system” displayed in Roman numerals, with I being the easiest and V the most challenging for experts (there is also a VI level but this is generally considered unnavigable.)
Some of the most famous white water rafting areas in Australia include the Barron, Russell & Tully Rivers (Cairns / Port Douglas) and the Mitta Mitta River (Melbourne). Likewise, New Zealand also has a strong rafting culture due to its abundant rivers and alpine terrain, with the areas around Queenstown (which includes the Kawarau and Shotover Rivers).
