This is the River Rafting trip that we do for individuals, groups & Corporates….on the Umkomaas river at the Hella Hella Outdoor Adventure Centre, just outside Richmond (only 1 ½ hrs from Durban, and 30 mins from Pmb). The Mkomazi River boasts Grade 3 rapids, which step-up to Grade 4 if there's been sufficient rain. The section from Hella Hella to Number 8 is regarded as the biggest traversable Whitewater south of the Zambezi.
