Riverboarding Kampar River, Malaysia
Kampar River - Gopeng, Perak
Whitewater Riverboarding

Kampar River, Perak (Beginners Level)
Another popular whitewater hotspot, Sg Kampar offers mainly grade 1 to 2 rapids. During the extreme dry season we consider this river too shallow to riverboard. Each run is estimated at between 55 to 90 minutes. Riverboarders will have 2 runs on the river. Kampar is a pleasant bruising encounter with nature and an exhilarating ride and an excellent introduction to riverboarding. Distance is 6k and includes 10 sets of rapids.

Riverboarding Guide Ratio: 7 participants : 1 Guide


Each participant will be supplied with a Wetsuit, PFD, Helmet, Fins, Booties and a Riverboard for this adventure trip (total 6 items).
Lunch will provide at the end of the trip also cool drinks/snacks where it is possible.

Safety:
Safety briefing will be conducted on land before the participants enter the water and then further instruction is conducted in the water before we set of for the adventure trip. All our guides carry throw bags and wear PFDs which are designed for swift water rescue in order to carry two persons should the need arise. If we detect that a participant cannot safely accomplish the test rapid then we will request the participant not to continue the journey and refund in full to him/her.
