Why do it ?

Whitewater rafting is undoubtedly one of our most popular and most social adrenalin sports. Rafting is not just about punting clients down the river - it is a way of life for Nae Limits ! All year round you will catch us out and about, making the most of the constantly changing rapids and exhilarating stretches of Whitewater here in Perthshire.

Whitewater rafting takes the form of a large inflatable craft specially constructed to carry up to 8 adrenalin-seeking participants, down rivers of varying difficulty - from the tame to the wildly dangerous. Each boat is expertly guided by one of our Nae Limits instructors who is familiar with the river and it's obstacles. On your journey you will be encouraged to work together as a team to bump and glide your way along the rivers natural course, whilst enjoying all the wild and wacky rapids for which the Scottish rivers are famous.

Where do I do it?

Due to the high level of expertise and experience that our guides have - we are able to swap venue depending on river levels and conditions. At certain times of the year, different rivers present different rafting challenges. The rivers we paddle vary in grade - all we ask is that you let us know of any previous whitewater rafting experience beforehand in order for us to tailor your trip. The rivers we paddle include:
River Tay
River Tummel
River Braan
River Orchy
River Ericht

….most of which are located within 15 minutes of our centre in Dunkeld and vary in grade from 2-5.

How long does it last?

A normal raft trip lasts half a day. On your arrival you will be issued with ALL the necessary specialist equipment which includes a wetsuit, wetsuit jacket, buoyancy aid, helmet, gloves, boots and socks. You will then be taken to the put in point and given a full safety brief before your river trip begins. Once you've survived the rapids we take you back to our centre where you will de-kit and no doubt pop over to one of the welcoming hostelries for a drink and recount your tales of the day.

Anything else?

Whitewater rafting provides a great half day activity and is ideally suited to mutli-activity days where you may wish to pursue 2 activities during your visit to us.

Please note that to raft the River Braan and Orchy we do suggest putting aside at least 6 hours, this reflects the length and technical difficulty of the river.
