Whitewater Kayaking in Chile
“I have paddled on the Futaleufu with a few different outfitters but my experience with Bio Bio was the best! The Bio Bio camp has incredible amenities, an amazing sunset bar, a wide selection of kayaks, and more off river activities than anyone else. Bio Bio allows you to paddle as much as you want and whenever you want. One day we paddled bridge to bridge, and came back to camp for an incredible lunch and then went upstream and played on the Azul and then paddled the Terminator section. The day ended with a soak in the hot tub, and then salsa dancing around the bar! Amen!” Randy Rocketbox - 2004 Futaleufu
FUTALEUFU RIVER KAYAK ADVENTURE IN PATAGONIA - Flexible Dates (December to March)
The Futaleufu River, located in northern Patagonia, is without a doubt one of the world’s best rivers for white water kayakers. Leave the cold winter behind and pop your kayak into the azure Futaleufu River in Chile only hours after you step off the plane. Our deluxe camp's riverfront location on the Futaleufu River gives us a unique put-in for kayaking just upstream of the non-stop action of the “bridge-to-bridge” section on the Futaleufu and just downstream from the world-famous “Terminator” rapid, which you can easily scout from our luxurious wilderness basecamp. Kayak and paddle all day and then relax at our sunset bar or hot tub in the evening.
The Futaleufu River is ideal for beginners, intermediates, or advanced kayakers and we can tailor a whitewater kayaking trip to meet your needs. We are one of the original outfitters on the Futaleufu River and have attracted top international kayaking champions to our team in Patagonia. Our international staff of kayakers are happy to coach you along and help improve your playboating moves or just show you the best lines and provide solid safety. Leave shuttle worries to us and forget about the hassle of flying with your boat! We have a huge selection of kayaks to choose from, from the latest playboats to classic big water riverrunners.
