Water activities

Those who love challenging recreational water activities and crave for adrenaline buzz go in for rafting - the Katun and Peschanaya whitewater running.
One and three-hour rafting trips on the Lower Katun have been traditionally popular with the tourists. The Katun whitewater expeditions provide great opportunities both for first-timers as well as for rugged trippers. One of the most challenging and heart pounding rafting adventures is running the Manzherokskiy rapid. In the area of the Tavdin caves rafters can even paddle into a grotto Ikhtiandr (which got its name after a literary character, a counterpart of Aquaman). Another rafting route goes along the Pechanaya river, starting from the village of llyinka up to Solonovka. Even children and first-timers can take part in the running thanks to the warm temperature of the water and gradual rise of difficulty grades. Rafts, double-hulled crafts and kayaks are used in the whitewater expeditions. Necessary outfits are available through rent. This whitewater adventure under the supervision of knowledgeable instructors will provide you with life-long memories.
