Rafting 2 Day

CODE : XA-6B

ROAD : CLOSED

ALTITUDE : 3500 - 3350m

HIGH SEASON : ALL YEAR LONG

DURATION : 02 DAYS

The Urubamba river runs from the high Andean ranges down through the Sacred Valley of the Incas, past Machu Picchu and into the jungle. It has some exciting white water depending on the section of the river being done and the time of the year. One of our most popular rafting sections during the season is the "Cusipata" section of the river on the upper Urubamba . There are good class III rapids and the water is not contaminated, as unfortunately the Huambutio and Ollantaytambo section of the river are.

ITINARY: 1 st Day

We will be meeting at 09h00 at our office.

Our private transport will take us, after 1.5h drive to our private camping ground at "Casa Cusi" were we can leave our luggage. Here you will enjoy hot showers, toilets, sauna and a comfortable dining area.

Our professional River guides will provide you with all the proper rafting equipment such as a helmet, wet suit, spray jacket, paddle and self bailing raft.

After a comprehensive safety talk you will be running exiting classes III & III + rapids.
