Whitewater Rafting
On the Buffalo River in Zululand you’ll find some of the most exciting white water rafting in South Africa, the river was rated one of the top ten best in Africa. Other WWR destinations include the Palmiet River in the Kogelburg Nature Reserve on the Western Cape which offers fantastic technical rafting opportunities as well as amazing scenery. Mpumalanga located in the east of SA has some of the most stunning rivers in the country. Check out Blyde River and be prepared for some steep gradients, some of the most intense in SA.
White Water Rafting is best experienced in the winter months between November to April, when the water levels are at their highest. Outside of this time it might not be possible to ride some of the rivers in SA.
