Description

Whitewater rafting is one of the most addictive, epic and fun activities one can indulge in, and I will lead you down one of the best rivers in South America to do this on, the Futaleufú River in Chile. We will enjoy a wet and wild experience and take in the breathtaking raw natural beauty of Patagonia.

The Futaleufú River is located in Northern Patagonia, on the Chilean side, and is world-renowned for being one of the best whitewater rafting rivers on Earth. Its clear and clean water is fed from glacial snowmelt and it also boasts a river gorge that drops down to 1700m.

Meeting in the town itself of Futaleufu, it is then a short drive down to the river, where we will run through all relevant safety information and dispense all the needed gear. It is then time to hit the water, and over the course of 4 hours, we will experience some absolutely exhilarating moments, with the Mundaca and Pillow rapids as particular highlights. There will also be ample time to take in and admire the unbeatable natural scenery of Patagonia that surrounds us, often regarded as some of the most wondrous and beautiful in South America. After 4 hours, we head back into town, hopefully with your heart still pumping and having fallen even more in love with this amazing part of the world.

Please keep in mind that we offer 2 trips per day, one at 9 am and one at 3 pm. Let us know your preference and we will make sure you have a wonderful time on the Futaleufú River!

This is truly one of the most fun experiences one can undertake in Patagonia – book now to join in!

Thank you explore-share for a wonderful via feratta experience. We have been wanting to learn for a long time but don't have the facilities in Scotland. The guide Mitja was extremely helpful and knowledgeable, answering all my many questions and providing advice. On the day head to take another group but he quickly arranged another guide Borut, who was brilliant. We had a fantastic morning learning via ferrata at Hvadnik in the gorge. It gave us the confidence to later hire our own equipment and go out in Mojstrana. Altogether a five star + experience. Thank you.
