Level of difficulty: Class I

The Quijos river is set to become Ecuador's premier white water trip with mile after mile of class IV-IV+ rapids and spectacular jungle scenery. Expect to run more white water in a day than you'd do in two days elsewhere. The Quijos river is also for Kayakers a dream river..! If y ou are fanatic of this sports you shoudn´t miss this full adrenaline experience. The best time to dip your paddle depend on how hard you want to push yourself. For experts we offer this river tours from September to March, at this time you can expecthigh flows and continuous whitewater rapids until class V. the rest of the year the Qijos offers plenty of action for every body and temperatures are also confortabler. However this rafting trip we recommend for rafters that are confident swimmers. No wimps please!

After a short drive to the put-in the Trip Leader will give a thorough safety briefing and conduct a swim test. Then you'll split into groups for an intensive in-boat paddle practice with your guide. Once we set off we're straight into the action but with some easier rapids to warm up. Along the way we'll stop for a riverside picnic lunch. In the afternoon we'll raft through the canyons of the Quijos running big, technical rapids.
