This river passes through some of the most remote and rugged land in the world. As a World Heritage Site, this region is known for dense rain forest, deep gorges and abundant wildlife that can only be found Down Under. Most rapids are class II or class III, but the water levels are unpredictable so it is not for amateurs. If you’re looking for a multi-day rafting adventure, check out Water by Nature.
