Zambezi Rafting

Below Victoria Falls, the Zambezi runs deep and fast through Batoka Gorge, a channelled, high-volume river rated among the world's best for white-water rafting. The route mixes class three to five rapids with calmer stretches of pool, giving paddlers a breather between the harder sections. Guides trained in river safety lead each raft, briefing guests before the descent and managing the technical rapids throughout. Alongside the rafting itself, the gorge's basalt walls and the river's changing character give the trip its scenery. It ranks among the more physically demanding activities on offer at AVANI Victoria Falls Resort.
