In Reply to: White water rafting..for children.. posted by Balimagic on Tuesday, 28. June 2005 at 07:21 Bali Time:
and we went to the ayung river. it's the dry season now, so the river waters are relatively calm. Most guides would recommmend the ayung river for young kids. The telaga waja river is a bit more challenging, not recommended for kids below 7. Be prepared for a LONG walk DOWN and a LONGER walk UP from the river to the receoption and lunch areas though.
The monsoon season starts around end October, so the waters start getting rougher from then till about February.
But the river guides are really fun people: they purposely rafted us towards a waterfall and said 'Look! Crocodile!' and then heaved us all under the waterfall....and man, the water is icy cold!!
Hope this helps :)
