Get ready for awesome rainforest rafting on the Tully River. Tackle world class rapids as they rip down the gorge, with giant granite boulders and a scenic backdrop like no other.
The Tully River is internationally recognised as Australia’s best rafting river. Water levels are guaranteed throughout the year, thanks to the operations of the 88 MW Kareeya Hydro power station.
Our Tully River rafting adventures coincide with the power station water release, ensuring you’re in for some serious action whenever you raft with us.
There’s no prior rafting experience necessary and both white-water thrill seekers and absolute beginners can tackle the rapids, as our world class River Guides have got you covered.
