Brief description
High Water: Although this is a grade 5 river, during the high water season the Zambezi River is not as exciting as it is in the Low water season. The trip is shorter, missing out some of the good rapids and the rapids on the whole are not as big. High Water rafting covers rapids #11 to #24.
Low Water: This grade 5 river is regarded as the best one-day rafting trip in the world. Low Water rafting covers rapids #1 to #19.
Clients should be reasonably fit for this activity, as there is a steep walk into & out of the Batoka Gorge as well as for the white water rafting activity itself.
