    This rafting stretch usually takes about 2 hours to finish. It has about 7 rapids including both small and big ones. Some of the good rapids we run on this stretch are Roller coaster (III+), golf Course (III+), and Club house (III). These rapids are safe to raft though there are some big waves and hydraulics. It takes about 30 minutes to one hour to drive to the starting point and then about 30 minutes for the preparation, inflating rafts and safety briefing. Once safety briefing is done, we get on the rafts. It is 2 hours fun on the river with some good splashes and big hits. We finish our rafting trip just before Laxman Jhula and then from there it is a 5 minutes drive back to Red Chilli Adventure office.
