Where can I go white water rafting in Scotland?

Check out, trips offered by the Rafting Company down the River Tummel or River Tay.

The great advantage of the Tummel is that the water flow is controlled by Clunie Dam, making the river more predictable with monitored dam releases rather than relying on rainfall alone. The narrow rocky nature of this part of the river as well as the Grade IV “Linn of Tummel” double-drop waterfall mean that this rafting experience is only suitable for ages 16 and up. Specialist equipment, as well as the transport to and from the meeting point at the river, are included in the price.

  • Different rafting trips and challenges are available
  • River Tummel trips cost from £55 per person
