  • Trip introduction

    There is always a good reason to skip work. And here are some more: it's always a good idea to go on adventures on weekdays. Here, you'll have the river to yourself, and you won't have to wait for anything. If you want to float around in the river for a while, your instructors will be happy to let you. They might even dive in too! And best of all, the rates are cheaper.

    You'll raft for a long 14 kms stretch, amidst the lush forests, sped along by the gushing waters of the Mulshi and Bhira dams, battling the Grade II and III rapids.

    Perfect for a day getaway or a thrilling activity on a weekend trip, rafting the white waters will be a unforgettable experience. This is a fun adventure that is only a short drive away from Mumbai or Pune city.

    Destination

    Kolad used to a be a small, peaceful town along the Kundalika river, until it was discovered to be one of the best places for rafting in Maharashtra. Rafting here is not weather-dependent, as the massive Bhira dam gates are opened every morning, turning the relatively serene river into a body of churning water. Adventurers from everywhere flock to Kolad to enjoy the tropical forests around and the pleasant water.

    The Western Ghats around Kolad turn from dry brown to a lush green paradise in the monsoon, with morning mists and rain clouds floating by, and a host of wildlife and birds.

    Try to arrive on time, because the dam waits for nobody! You'll meet your instructors at 08:00 and travel to the start point.

    After a short briefing about safety and the rules, you'll receive your equipment and board your rafts.

    The fun starts now! Set out on the Kundalika river, fighting to push your boat through grade II-III rapids while you keep balance.

    It's a long stretch of 14 kms, and 2 hours later, you'll be drenched and tired. Take a refreshing dip in the river and spend some time splashing around.

    You'll return to the office where there are changing rooms available. Trip ends here.
