Activity Overview

Enjoy a wet, rough and tumble ride on a rafting adventure in Kota Kinabulu along the Kiulu River. Kiulu Village is worth a trip just for its lovely rural scenes and the river offers the best spot for white water rafting.

The Kiulu River provides a Grade Il to IIl experience and is suitable for newcomers to rafting. Grade Il reaches have moving water with a few riffles and small waves. There are few or no obstructions. Grade IIl sections give you easy rapids with waves up to 3 feet (1m) high and wide, clear channels that are obvious without scouting. Some maneuvering will be required.

On arriving at the river bank, you will meet your rafting guide and receive a briefing on safety procedures. After wearing your safety helmet and life-jacket, you will begin your rafting adventure. The farthest distance you can cover is 15km if the water level is high and 8km if the rafting is at normal water level.

The rafting will definitely kick in hunger pangs. While you relax by the riverside, you will be served a BBQ lunch.

Do not bring precious ornament along the trip.
