River Rafting Urubamba River
What your day looks like
Early in the morning, we will head for the dock located in Pachar. This is the starting point for our river rafting experience on the Urubamba. Here passengers will receive their river rafting equipment and a proper safety briefing on how to handle the level II and III rapids. After a brief practice on the flat parts of the river, we will start our journey on easy waters, while we admire the spectacular views of the mountains and archaeological ruins, continuing towards Ollantaytambo and its amazing Inca terraces. We'll finish our journey with El Resbaladero or "the Slide," a strong class III rapid that includes waves and small whirlpools. We will then have lunch in a traditional restaurant owned by a local family and located on the riverside. This is a great chance to enjoy Andean cuisine while supporting the local community.
The experience, in brief
- Admire spectacular views of the Peruvian mountains from your rafting trip
