San Gil is often subtitled as the adventure capital of Colombia – and it seemed, really everything was on offer here … from easy stuff like hiking, to canyoning, caving, paragliding (tandem of course), rafting (various levels) and bungee jumping – so a bit like a Colombian Queenstown. 😉

I decided for the rafting on Suarez River, according to Colombia Rafting Expeditions one of the most exciting rivers in Colombia to practice whitewater rafting and kayaking,  with rapids class IV + V.
After a drive of about an hour we made it to the starting point for an introduction to actual rafting, rescue and self-rescue measures (necessary with level 5 rapids ahead of us). The actual rafting turned out major fun – with water coming from every direction. Below some evidence from our trip and our raft – courtesy of Colombia Rafting Expeditions.
