Full Day White-Water Rafting in the Urubamba River (Cusco)
Price is based on two people.
The Urubamba river runs from the high Andean ranges down through the Sacred Valley of the Incas, past Machu Picchu and further into the jungle. The Urubamba river is divided into Upper Urubamba and Lower Urubamba, the dividing feature being the Pongo de Mainique, a white water canyon that opens into the Amazon plain.
The Urubamba river has a lot to offer! The white water offers us a great experience doing the rafting, depending the section of the river and the time of the year. One of our most popular rafting sections during the season is the “Chuquicahuna- (CHUQUI)”-section on the Upper Urubamba. Here, we can find good class II-rapids and the water is not contaminated (as unfortunately some other river sections in the Sacred Valley of the Incas).
This section is perfect for one-day-tours with nice class II, III and IV plus rapids, riding along the river while enjoying excellent scenic views with big eucalyptus trees and many beautiful flowers. This white water rafting section is open all year long; from early december to late march the river even offers class IV-rapids.
