How to get there
The upper Navua river is boasted to be the home of one of the most unique river canyons in the world and we completely agree with this. The upper Navua river is almost pristine and one of the best-preserved environments in Fiji. This is also one of the best-preserved forests we have seen in the country. The tropical rainforest is full of exotic fauna and flora of Fiji, and this is a must see for every Fijian and everyone who visits the beautiful Islands. On this trip you get to hike through an amazing rainforest. You also get to paddle the exciting class Il-Ill whitewater, explore hidden grottoes and enjoy the numerous waterfalls that spill into this remarkable canyon. You also get to swim and enjoy a meal along the riverside with the most breathtaking views. You can contact Rivers Fiji on the website link:https://riversfiji.com/rafting-upper-navua. The details of the trip are described on the website. We did this adventure twice during a time when the country was seeing almost no tourists due to COVID. The cost of doing this as a local ranged between FJ$ 130- FJ$190. We are not sure of the cost these days.
What to bring
We recommend wearing comfortable shoes for the short hike and comfortable shirts and pants. You will spend most of the day on the raft and will be wet. You need to get sunscreen, clean drinking water and snacks. Lunch is provided on the trip. We recommend bringing extra sets of clothes to wear after the rafting activity. You must be extra careful with your electronic gadgets. A dry bag will be provided by the tour providers for you to keep your items dry. We recommend being extra cautious as we have lost at least 1 electronic device to water intrusion. Have fun and be amazed
How to make this more exciting
The scheduled trip will have at least 25-30 people in 4-6 rafts going downriver. You could do this as a competition to see which team finishes first. This makes this even more fun. We competed with other teams in both our trips. Needless to say, we won both the times!
