Rafting and white water rafting are recreational outdoor activities which use an inflatable raft to navigate a river or other body of water. This is often done on whitewater or different degrees of rough water. Dealing with risk and the need for teamwork is often a part of the experience.This activity as an adventure sport has become popular since the 1950s, if not earlier, evolving from individuals paddling 10 feet (3.0 m) to 14 feet (4.3 m) rafts with double-bladed paddles or oars to multi-person rafts propelled by single-bladed paddles and steered by a person at the stern, or by the use of oars.Rafting on certain sections of rivers is considered an extreme sport, and can be fatal, while other sections are not so extreme or difficult. Rafting is also a competitive sport practiced around the world which culminates in a world rafting championship event between the participating nations. The International Rafting Federation, often referred to as the IRF, is the worldwide body which oversees all aspects of the sport.Whitewater rafting can be traced back to 1811 when the first recorded attempt to navigate the Snake River in Wyoming was planned. With no training, experience, or proper equipment, the river was found to be too difficult and dangerous. Hence, it was given the nickname “Mad River.” the first commercial rafting trip took place. On June 9, 1940, Clyde Smith lead a successful trip through the Snake River Canyon.........................................................Thank You 🤸‍♂️

Rafting in rishikesh is the best in India...you are not going to get so much trill, adventure on any other place than rishikesh...There are basically three types of of rafting options depending on the distance travelled...but the best one is 18 km rafting which will take u through 9 rapids ( some of them are major) ..water is extremely cool even in the summers... guides provided during rafting are very experienced and they know what to do when raft capsizes and they will let u enter in the water even in the rapids but in a controlled manner..Had a great experience..

Adventure is very good must do once in life

Rafting is great experience, everyone must go for it

Awesome exp.. everyone have to try it once.. try not to misa any of the fun activity.. to jump in water whenever get chance

Amazing experience. The rafting is filled with fun and adventure. I have done rafting quite a times in rishikesh. You will get all type of adventure. If you have more energy and thrill then do rafting from shivpuri to Rishikesh, which is 18 km rafting as youll be passing some major thrilling rapids. They named each rapids a different name.
