Feel the thrill of river rafting progo in Magelang

Progo River River rafting Scary? yes! If you do not use a buoy, helmet and not guided by a professional Guide, or you are guided by a motorcycle taxi driver ha .. ha .. Look at the photo below, do they look worried?

River Rafting Progo has 3 trips: 1. Upstream Progo (Grade III +) 2. Upper Progo (Grade III)

3. Bottom Progo (Grade IV)

The higher the grade order the more dangerous so if you are in grade I may be soaking in the bathroom.

This time we chose Trip Progo over, with a distance of about 9 km. Starting from a row of progo times at Hotel Puri Asri ends under the Progo Mbabrik bridge. Note Participants do not have to stay at Hotel Puri Asri, but to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of the five star hotel make sure you use Progo rafting as your rafting operator.

Activity starts from 08:00 am, participants are welcome to enter the important goods and that should not be brought to the receptionist who has provided lockers. After that the participants are gathered to receive a brief briefing on:

1. Field recognition

2. How to use equipment

3. Rowing and medical team

Then once everything is complete, the guide checks one by one the equipment the participants use to make sure everything is in line with the white water rafting standards.

We went to the boats that have been provided. One boat can be filled by 6 people including a guide. The position is set according to body weight so boat is balanced. Well we started rowing, not to 100 meters we've met with rapids. Apparently there are dozens of rapids here, it is worth the trip Arbor rafting Progo above this becomes a favorite package. With us there are 8 boats that seem to be from a particular company.Some Jeram Grade III and grade II we went through with fun and exciting, slowly lost our assumption that the rafting at times progo is scary! Ha ha, even vice versa. Not only that there are some games that are not less exciting, including: Floats follow the rapids, well you get off the boat, with sleeping position on your back legs and head on the back, like the position of "plosotan" in waterboom. Skip to the rapids rapids, because it's a safe location, this rapids can be occupied by participants with any style, hehe want proof? Rotate from the boat while maintaining balance, and there are still some other games.

Do not worry about losing memories when the moment is in progress, Progo Rafting team has provided Sniper-sniper pothograper in certain rapids, you just wait for the signal from the guide, cool right ?.

Halfway the participants rest on a sandy riverbank, here all participants, guides and photographers gather. While enjoying the snacks provided, participants can wonder about the Progo river, the whitewater rafting, or even request photos with family or friends.

Fun rafting continues, through some rapids around midday we get to the last post. There is a surprise waiting here, there is fresh young coconut ice. While waiting for the guiding team to pack the gear, we enjoyed the scenery in a hut on the edge of the rice fields.
