Packrafts and gear
This trip is suited to the adventurous and those with some paddling experience. We start the day with a short walk down the hill to Den of Nargun and the Mitchell River. You will need to carry all your gear for the day in a hiking pack. Once we arrive at the river we will pack and inflate our packrafts and get on the river.
The first hour will be spent learning and reviewing our strokes and techniques. This is a must, as the first rapid can be a bit of a wake-up-call. We are straight in to the whitewater at that point, and there is no turning back. A 10km paddle, with lots of rapids, adreneline and fun along the way.
We will supply a Gourmet Lunch at the Old Weir, and then onwards to the finish through some of the best rapids in that section. Our final point will be the Glenaladale bridge.
Packrafts and on- water gear is supplied, as is the gourmet lunch. You will be required to bring your own hiking pack ( although some are available if you dont have one), water, sunscreen and the other essentials. Wetsuits are available for hire.
