SOBEK WILD ENCOUNTERS
WHITE WATER RAFTING ON THE AYUNG RIVER

SOBEK's two-hour rafting trip will take you through some of the most spectacular scenery Bali has to offer. World-class river guides and modern safety equipment make this a fun day out for all the family, a mix of wild excitement and fantastic sightseeing as you switch between Class II and III rapids and wide, leisurely stretches through tropical rain forest.

Throughout your trip the guides not only skillfully maneuver your rafts, but also take the time to pass on their knowledge on local Balinese lifestyle and the local flora and fauna of the Ayung River valley.

Spectacular waterfalls, the beauty of untouched Tropical Rainforest and the brilliant blue flash of the Javan kingfisher will bring your adventure to life as you cover the 12 kilometers to the Kedewatan finish point. The Ayung River weaves through a valley dwarfed by enourmous valley walls held together with dense Tropical Jungle.

After completing the trip, sit back, catch your breath and relive the excitement of your trip at our spectacular terraced river restaurant on the banks of the Ayung. Towels are provided the moment you step from your raft and the design of our bamboo waterfall showers always has guests talking. Full amenities are provided. Once you have dried off, the most spoken about meal on the Ayung River is presented, with a selection of over 20 Western and Balinese dishes served up along with fruits, sweets and coffee or tea.
