The Murray River is reliant on natural rainfall patterns. Dwellingup Adventures will advise you if the water levels are unsuitable.
Fast Water Rafting is not available at low water levels.
There are 2 small rapid features and the Grade 2 Island Pool rapid. There are several faster narrow channels. Island Pool Rapid has good pedestrian access and rafters can exit the river after the rapid and carry the raft up the pathway and run the rapid again.
The section from Yarragil to Bobs Crossing is generally suitable for beginner paddlers. Parents will determine the suitability of their children, but it is common for an adult and a young child to do the tour.
If you are not at Bobs Crossing at the designated pick-up time Dwellingup Adventures staff will travel along River Road to check your location.
If you require an emergency phone, there are two landlines in the park.
Entry Ranger Station: if occupied rangers have a phone.
Nanga Bush Camp: a phone box close to the manager’s residence is available for emergency and local calls only at no cost. Both locations are on your map.
Emergency services will typically try to get to you. If you can please secure all gear and rafts up from the river and note the location. Dwellingup Adventures may be able to assist emergency staff so call +61 95381127 as well.
Dwellingup Adventures staff will give you a basic safety brief in case you fall out.
