For rafting lovers, we want to summarize a ranking made by National Geographic with the best places to enjoy this spectacular sport. This ranking considered not only the difficulty of the descent (all have sections with difficulty level IV or V, i.e., maximum), but also the beauty of the surroundings and the spectacular nature of the route. These are some of the best places in the world for rafting:
ZAMBEZI RIVER
Located in the African continent, more specifically in Zambia, this river stands out for its large size and flow, and its wild nature where you may even encounter wildlife such as hippos. In addition to being one of the best and most beautiful places to go rafting, it is also one of the most dangerous.
NOCE RIVER
The Noce River is located in the Italian Alps and is one of the best places to go rafting in terms of value for money, as you don’t have to travel too far to enjoy it. It is one of the rivers where the World Rafting Championship is held, which makes it highly sought after.
CORUH RIVER
This river is located in Turkey and is characterized by the fact that the word “rapids” falls short in describing its waters, as it is extremely fast. This requires great attention from all members of the raft to overcome the various obstacles that may be encountered.
SUN KOSI RIVER
The Sun Kosi River is located in Nepal and its appeal lies not only in its advanced level V sections but also in the fact that it flows through the highest mountain peaks in the world, making it a rare scenic experience in rafting, which is usually done in lower-altitude environments.
NORTH JOHNSTONE RIVER
This river is located in Australia and is one of the most exclusive, as access to the section requires a helicopter ride. This gives an idea of how well-preserved the area is and how coveted it is among rafting enthusiasts.
We hope you enjoyed learning about some of the best places in the world to go rafting, but if you don’t want to (or can’t) travel that far, remember that we offer the best rafting right here at home, in another privileged setting like Andalusia. Don’t hesitate to give it a try.
