KODIYALA DOWN: 35km (Recommended for adults only)
This trip is only offered when the river is running a bit high as it is not possible to run this stretch in one day. This is a grade III, III+ rafting stretch with one grade IV rapid which can be a flipper sometimes. Flip is when the raft turns upside down throwing us into the water. It is a 5-6 hours session on the river and has about 12 rapids overall. Some of the good rapids we run are called The wall (IV), Three blind mice (III+), crossfire (III), Roller coaster (III+), Golf Course (III+), Clubhouse (III). The most exciting of all is The Wall as it flips the rafts upside down. Rapids are safe despite big waves. It takes about one hour to drive to the starting point and then another 30 minutes for the preparation and safety briefing. Once the safety briefing is done, we can get on the rafts. In between, we stop for lunch at Shivpuri for 30 minutes. We finish our rafting trip back in Rishikesh near LaxmanJhula and after a 5 minutes’ drive, we reach our office.
