Experience the excitement of white water rafting on Northamptonshire's purpose-built whitewater course.
Your session begins with a welcome from the activity team, where you'll be provided with a wetsuit and helmet before meeting your raft guide for a briefing.
Once on the water, you'll join your group in the raft and head onto the course. The route takes you through a series of fast-flowing sections created by the River Nene. Each run offers plenty of movement and plenty of opportunities to enjoy being out on the water.
The whitewater course has been designed specifically for adventure sports and provides an exciting setting for rafting.
Whether you're sharing the raft with friends or taking part as part of a group activity, this is a fantastic way to enjoy time outdoors and experience the fun of white water rafting.
