Whitewater Rafting on The Ayung River

Sobek RaftingThis pioneer rafting trip of Bali is where adventure started with SOBEK in 1989. Always a spectacular river, its wild thrills unfold from the moment you push off from the riverbank.

Ayung’s class II & III rapids wind through a deeply carved valley with towering waterfalls and enormous cliffs of prehistoric times. Tropical jungle shadows shimmer on river pools, then white water once more breaks the serenity of this environment.

Keep your eyes open along the way for the occasional glimpse of brilliant blue Javan kingfishers or lazy lizards sunning on rocks. At intervals, openings in the jungle expose shrines, festively decorated on special days with offerings. Then suddenly the Ayung propels you into yet another rapid.

Following the hestic fun and discovery, step from your raft at the finish point into a natural bamboo shower. Fresh towels and bountiful buffet lunch await at SOBEK’s terraced riverside restaurant.
