While planning for my trip, I had read up about the white water rafting possibilities in Pucon and was looking forward to doing it. Despite having a sprained ankle, the intent was still very high! Call me stubborn! :D
The rafting takes place along River Trancura, offering a decline equivalent to grade 4. I arrived at the pick-up point at 3pm and together with another 10 people, we were brought to the starting point for Rafting.
After putting on our wetsuits and helmets, we were briefed on how to use the paddle upon various commands given by the guide before being split into 2 groups. And the ADVENTURE BEGINS!!!
The river offered fantastic rapids as there were hardly much calm moments and we were often paddling down rapid after rapid.
It was pure 1hr of adrenalin, pumping through our bodies as we went down the river and got splashed with extreme cold water each time we encounter a big rapid.
And the thrill one gets out of it was all worth it!
Photos were taken by one of the staff at various points of the rafting trail and we got to view the many candid moments, our expressions along with the splashing water as we went down the various rapids.
However as it cost too much to purchase the images, the images and experience will just be in memory…
