Captivating Coorg: Rs.1799 to Enjoy Choice of Stay Options with White Water Rafting in River Barpole at Rio Restotel!

There is no rushing a river. When you go there, you are at the pace of the water and that pace ties you into a flow that is older than life on this planet. Acceptance of that pace, even for a day, changes us, reminds us of other rhythms beyond the sound of our own heartbeats - Jeff Rennicke.

With the monsoons here, the only way to experience a river at its best is white water rafting. And the best place in southern India to experience it is the Barapole River! 

Imagine the sound of gushing rapids lashing against the raft, getting sprayed by cold water and people screaming as the raft twists and turns in the river? Get all that and more with today’s deal!

Nicknamed the Scotland of India, Coorg is a charming hill station nestled in the magnificent Western Ghats ranges. Located at a distance of 250kms from Bangalore, Coorg boasts of a culture as rich as the coffee that grows on its land and people as sweet as the honey that’s made there, hence it is not surprising that Coorg has become a favorite destination among nature lovers and tourists.

Coorg has it all – from deep valleys to tree-covered hills to flowing streams and waterfalls. Known primarily as India’s coffee bowl, the hills of Coorg are also covered with acres of pepper, cardamom, cloves and spice plantations as well as rows of coconut palms and orange groves.

The Barapole experience is THE finest white water river rafting experience in southern India. The river is surrounded by scenic beauty with thick and forested greenery on either side, and provides an ideal surrounding for your adrenaline pumping escapade!

The rapids are graded between 2 to 4 and the river runs in to a short distance of about 5-6km only, but the rapids and river course is an absolutely exciting experience, that is just what you'd come looking for in every monsoon season.

Yet, all rafters who've tread this course over the years agrees to it being an awesome experience that will simply blow your mind.
