INTRODUCTION
White water rafting as an adventure sport has gained in popularity
in recent years. Other than the thrill and excitement of riding
the roaring rapids, white water rafting is also an opportunity to
see the forests and countryside.
Kiulu
River
The Kiulu River is an hour and a half by road north of Kota Kinabalu.
Take in the magnificent views of the
surrounding countryside from the hilltops as you drive to the town
of Tamparuli.
With
headwaters from Mt. Kinabalu, this river provides a Grade II to
III experience, suitable for newcomers to this exciting sport. Deep
pools punctuate rapids - indulge in body rafting or swimming. The
river journey is between 1 to 1 ½ hours, depending on river-stage.
Picnic by the riverside before returning to Kota Kinabalu.
Morning
pick up from the hotel and transfer to Kiulu. A scenic drive into
the foothills of the Crocker Range brings you to the start of an
exciting journey.
Note:
A briefing on safety precautions and rafting techniques is given
by the instructor.

Padas
River
This
river offers a more heart-pounding experience, one recommended for
the more adventurous rafter. A bus ride of 1 ½ hours brings
you to Beaufort in time to catch the rain to the take-off point.
As the railway track lines the Padas River, this is an opportunity
to size-up the raging rapids as the train chugs along. Food and
dry clothes are left at the Rayoh Station while all participants
travel on to Kg. Panggi, the take-off point. Here, our rafting instructors
brief participants on safety procedures.
The
boulder- strewn Padas Gorge, cutting through lowland rainforests,
is a Grade III to IV. Thrills and spills are to be expected.
The rafting journey on the Padas River is between 1 to 2 hours,
depending on the river-stage. Participants get out of the river
at Rayoh. After a picnic lunch, return by train and bus to Kota
Kinabalu.
