Whitewater Rafting Guide To River Trips

Telaga Waja River

Location: Bali

The Telaga Waja River flows below Bali’s highest peak, Mt. Agung, an active volcano that last erupted in the 1960s. Many Balinese regard the mountain as sacred—which lends a unique touch to Telaga Waja River rafting trips—and you might even see ash or smoke rising from Agung!

Waterfalls spill into the Telaga Waja, creating a dramatic addition to jungle and rice paddy scenery.
