The professional and friendly staff at White Water Rafting Scotland will help match you with the perfect stretch of river based on your desired level of excitement and difficulty. With a range of options available, including the River Tay and the River Tummel, you can tailor your rafting experience to meet your preferences.

For those seeking a unique and exhilarating adventure, the River Tay provides the largest volume of commercially rafted water in Scotland. It's an ideal choice for first-time rafters as well as seasoned adrenaline seekers. Sections of calm water allow for practising paddling techniques and taking in the stunning scenery, while the rapids offer an adrenaline-fueled water fight or a thrilling ride.

If you're looking for bigger rapids, the River Tummel is a must-try. With guaranteed water levels throughout summer, thanks to releases from the Clunie Dam by the Scottish Hydro Electric, the Tummel boasts two main rapids: Zoom Flume and the unforgettable Washing Machine. These rapids provide an exciting introduction to the thrills and adventure of white water rafting in Perthshire.

The journey begins in front of the dam, where you'll immediately dive into the action. As you progress downstream, you'll encounter slightly calmer waters where your experienced guide will teach you the necessary techniques for tackling the upcoming challenges. From there, you'll experience the power and awe-inspiring scenery of the Lower River Tummel. The adventure continues with extreme rapids such as Zig-Zag and Sharks Tooth, culminating in an unforgettable 18ft double drop over the Linn of Tummel.

No prior rafting experience is required, but it's important to note that the River Tummel trip is not for the faint-hearted. Participants must be at least 16 years old to join in on this adventure. White Water Rafting Scotland also caters to stag weekends, providing an exciting and memorable activity for groups.
