River Rafting-A thrilling Experience
River rafting is journeying on the torrential river on an inflatable rubber boat. River rafting is a new adventure sport in Pakistan. Adventure Foundation Pakistan with the assistance of Improving Livelihoods and Enterprise Development Program (I-LED) of CNFA Pakistan has started a River Rafting Project on River Kunhar in Kaghan Valley.
Kunhar is an excellent river for rafting. Some of the sections between Naran and Balakot are quite technical and suitable only for experienced white water paddlers. Other sections of the river, above Naran and below Balakot, are of relatively of easy grade and are great fun for beginners and amateurs.
These trips can be enjoyed by everyone without any previous experience of river rafting. With expert river guides and up-to-date equipment it will be the first adventure tourism project of its kind in Pakistan. It is expected that this project will not only open new avenues for adventure tourism in Pakistan but will also help to promote the domestic and foreign tourism in the region.
