White water Kayaking

Mountain Biking & White Water Kayaking Tour

Can’t decide between the mountain biking and white water kayaking tours? Relax. You can have it all. BOAC has introduced an adventure weekend that gives you the best of both tours and allows you to experience the true diversity of the Barrington ecosystem. Your journey begins 1500 metres above sea level in the sub alpine country. It finished the following day in the infamous ‘Shoot’ and Washing Machine’ rapids of the Barrington River. Read on to find out more about the two day ride of your life.

It’s tempting to linger over our delicious breakfast but the wild Barrington River calls. We love the water and can’t wait to share this experience with you, but before we head off we’ll take the time to teach you everything you need to know. Then we’ll take you on a paddle you’ll never forget.

Glide along the gentler sections of our pristine waters. Witness the beauty and tranquillity of the gorge country that slowly comes to life around you, and hone your skills for the adrenalin packed white water rapids ahead.

You’ll love the grade 2 rapids, and depending on your ability we’ll get your heart pumping with the Steps, S-Bend and Meaning of Life.

Your weekend to remember will finish with a hot shower, afternoon tea and the perfect coffee back at BOAC.

Total Cost AUD$360.00 (Incl. GST) per person, min. 4 people, max. 24.

Day One

Mountain Bike     Mountain Bike

Your adventure starts by tackling the Thunderbolt’s Trail downhill mountain bike ride. If the views don’t leave you speechless, the adrenalin certainly will.

You’ll descend 1000 metres over 30 kilometres and witness awe-inspiring landscapes that change dramatically as you ride.

Listen to the bellbirds ringing through the cool mountain air, glimpse brush turkeys scrounging on the forest floor and share the sense of confidence and camaraderie that this unique experience brings.

At the end of the day, we’ll reach our campsite. You have nothing to do but put your feet up and enjoy the magnificent surrounds or even take a dip in the pristine Barrington River. We’ll do the rest for you.

We prepare the campsite, a fresh gourmet BBQ dinner and dessert.

Total Cost AUD$150.00 (Incl. GST) per person, min. 4 people
