Baden Powell Waterspout is a severe drop that forms a grade 4 rapid in high water and exposed rocky formations in low water. The area is clearly sign posted and to go past it you would need to take the canoe out of the water carry it 300 metres around the water fall past the car park and the sign that indicates Baden Powell. This is where the provider will meet you to collect the equipment at the end of the tour.
If you go past Baden Powell Waterspout you will see Nanga Bridge. Nanga Bridge is a high single lane wooden traffic bridge with warnings about dangerous rapids ahead. DO NOT PROCEED PAST THIS POINT
The Murray River is reliant on natural rainfall patterns. Dwellingup Adventures will advise you if the water levels are unsuitable.
This tour is dependent upon natural river levels, usually September to May is suitable. Typically, from December to April the river gets very low. If the water level is shallow you might need to pull the canoe through.
The section from Yarragil to Baden Powell or Island Pool to Baden Powell is generally suitable for novices and beginners.
If you are not at Baden Powell Waterspout 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 land lines 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 canoes up from the river and note location. Dwellingup Adventures may be able to assist emergency staff so call +61 95381127 as well.
