Kolad River Rafting - a fantastic day trip!

Looking for weekend getaways from Mumbai or Pune? Kolad river rafting as it is popularly called, is done on the fantastic Kundalika river. This rafting day trip will take you through the virgin forests below the Mulshi and Bhira dams, along a 14 KM stretch of the Kundalika. This wild and exciting stretch passes through Grade II and III rapids, and with our fully qualified guides you're in great hands. 

MHE is a licensed adventure tour operator and recognized by the Ministry of Tourism, Government of India, and is a member of ATOAI (Adventure Tour Operators Association of India) as well as ATTA (Adventure Travel Trade Association, USA).

In the world of white-water rafting, the first descents of the Brahmaputra river in 1991, Upper Teesta, Upper Indus, Nubra, Narmada and Suru rivers are all credited to MHE. So, when you raft with MHE you know you are in safe hands.
