Women's Easy Rapids Kayaking Sunday 29th October

Enter the Kangaroo Valley River in NSW for an enjoyable day paddle down gentle rapids.

Please be aware that this trip relies on optimal water levels to ensure both a safe and enjoyable paddling experience. If the river's water level is low, we adjust our starting point to Bendeela for a serene flat water paddle, which offers a different yet equally captivating experience without the rapids. When you book this trip, keep in mind these two possible scenarios. Should any adjustments be needed, we'll promptly inform you. We appreciate your understanding, as nature always has its own plans!
