Mitchell River Gourmet Packraft Trip

Beginner and Intermediate Packrafting on the Mitchell River.

Come and enjoy the wilderness of the Mitchell River National Park with their experienced and highly qualified guides love this trip. This trip suits the adventurous and those with some paddling experience.

Start with a social wine and cheese the night before ( local gourmet delicacies) and then the next day you will enjoy a short walk down the hill to Den of Nargun and the Mitchell River. You will need to carry all your gear for the day in a hiking pack.

Once at the river, you will inflate the rafts and pack, followed by learning and reviewing your strokes and techniques on the water. This is a must, as the first rapid can be a bit of a wake-up-call. You go straight in to the whitewater at that point, and there is no turning back. A 10 kilometre paddle, with lots of rapids, adreneline and fun along the way.

They supply a gourmet lunch at the Old Weir, and then onwards to the finish through some of the best rapids in that section. Your final point will be the Glenaladale bridge.
