46m Abseil

1 Full day River Rafting Trip,19km on the Ash River including lunch and soft drinks
Abseiling and white water rafting are ideal activities to combine. The abseiling in and around Clarens is awesome.
Lovely sandstone cliffs, which are ideal for abseiling. Have fun, get out into nature.

The best 1 day white water river rafting action in South Africa
Exciting grade 3 and 4 white water rafting all year round, 365 days a year. Not rain dependent
The Ash river just outside Clarens in the Eastern Freestate is fed by the Trans Caledon Transfer Tunnel, which pumps water from the Katze dam high up in the Maluti Mountains in Lesotho. The crystal clear water flows down the Ash river all the way to the Vaal dam.

The day starts with a short drive out to the river, where we do a safety-brief and explain all the dos and donts for the days rafting action.Then we get on the water, practice getting back into the raft, just in case someone does fall out, and then within a few 100 metres from the start we hit the first rapid called Breathalyzer, After Breathalyzer its action all the way with grade 3 rapids like Car wash , Alles verloren and Alles gevonden until you get to The Bridge. Here you will get out and have a look at the high light of the day. An awesome grade 4 rapid with the name Fish pond rapid, Be scared, VERY SCARED.
After running Fishpond you will gather on the rocks next to the rapid, have some refreshments, and contemplate the wiseness of your actions. Then its back onto the rafts for more adventure. Next up is the weir. Quite something. Oh yes
After the weir there is another small little rapid, some flat water where some of the biggest water fights in history have been fought, and then we get to Big surprise. Wow, what a rapid. After Big surprise we get out just before the unraftable grade 5 rapid and have lunch on the banks of the river. After lunch the action is still not over. You all get to go to the waterfall, The chute and a few small rapids in between. And then at the end of the day, it is a short drive back into Clarens.
