One Day Murray Gates Rafting
Adventure Victoria Rafting, Corryong, VIC

High in the pristine alpine rainforest of the Snowy Mountains you'll find the Murray Gates. The turbulent birthplace of the Murray River, this narrow gorge provides one of Australia's premier wildwater adventures.

The action starts immediately as you negotiate seemingly non-existent passageways through rock-strewn corridors such as Sharks Tooth and Himalayan wrap. Rapids comprised of tight chutes, tall drops and immense boulders continue for a sensational 10 kms.

The next 8km section of the river mellows to lower grade rapids, allowing time to relax, and space to take in the breathtaking wilderness: rugged deep canyons, crystal clear pools, side-streams, waterfalls and abundant wildlife. Back on dry land, you'll enjoy a BBQ at Hermits Farm where you'll swap stories about your great adventure.
