Itinerary

Enjoy Warrandtyte’s spectacular Yarra river in a two-person inflatable sports raft! Learn how to paddle your way through fun grade 2 rapids. Paddle with friends or family and enjoy the thrills and spills over an awesome day. With the added convenience of being so close to Melbourne, it is the perfect day trip. ​You will paddle through stunning mini gorges and valleys filled with native bush land and wildlife. It will feel as though you are in a completely remote location, away from the hustle and bustle of city life. The river is fantastic all year round and especially throughout the winter months with higher rainfall and bigger rapids. We can provide lunch and time to sit back and take it all
