Clarens, Free State

About River Rafting in Clarens

This exhilarating white-water rafting experience on the Ash River, near Clarens in the Eastern Free State, offers Grade 3 and 4 rapids year-round. Fed by the Trans Caledon Transfer Tunnel, which channels clear, pure water from the Katse Dam in Lesotho’s Maluti Mountains, the Ash River flows continuously, providing ideal conditions for adventure every day of the year.

The day begins with a short drive to the river, where participants receive a comprehensive safety briefing and essential instructions from experienced guides. Once equipped and ready, rafters practice re-boarding techniques, preparing for any surprises along the way. Just a few hundred meters from the start, they encounter the first rapid, aptly named "Breathalyser."

From there, the excitement intensifies, with a series of Grade 3 rapids, including "Car Wash," "Alles Verloren," and "Alles Gevonden," before reaching "The Bridge." Here, the group pauses to view the day's high point—a thrilling Grade 4 challenge known as "Fish Pond Rapid," promising an unforgettable finale to an action-packed day.
