Your

and then you will be transferred to Ulu Geruntum which takes approximately 30
minutes ride through a narrow tarred road using mini vans. Upon arrival, you
have to walk for about 10 minutes from the main road to the abseiling point with
breathtaking secondary rainforest view.

When
you reach the Canyoning point, safety briefing will be given to you as safety
precautions by our professional guide that takes about 10 to 15 minutes. Once
the safety briefing is presented, you will be given abseiling gear by our
professional guide and they will do a demo for you on how to use it the correct
way as well as encouraging you to gain self confidence.

After
the demo, you will then abseil down the 15 meters of
waterfall. You will then feel the cold refreshing water
splashing thru all parts of your body and that’s when you
never thought it was possible. You will start moving down very
slowly, but as you get more practice and as your confidence
grows you will be coming down in just a few leaps and bounds.
For
those who have a fear of heights or have difficulty abseiling
down (rappelling down) on their own, our professional abseilers will abseil down
along side them and assist them all the way down.

A detailed safety
briefing will be conducted before each trip. The rafting team
for the trip explains what to do if the raft flips, how to help
each other out of the water and what conditions to expect.
We always
give
the worst-case scenario so that people know what to expect from
the trip and, therefore, have the choice to forego their trip
after the safety talk. Once in the raft, you are instructed by
your rafting guide as to how to negotiate the rapids and some
practice is done before you set off. You are also briefed before
each rapid on how the raft is expected to react.
Safety and
Precaution
Rafting
is safer then crossing road
We always
ensure all the participants wear a life jacket.
We do not
overload the raft.
We do not go
rafting after/during a heavy rain.
Our guides
are qualified and well trained.
We well
know local weather conditions. We make sure the water and
weather conditions are safe. Because water conducts electricity, it is wise to stop swimming, boating, or any
activities on the water assoon
as you see or hear lightning.
Practical
Rafting Tips
All
rafters will be given a safety briefing before the ride and will
be shown basic backward and forward paddling techniques. Always
check that the helmets and life jackets provided fit you well
and are not too tight or too loose.
Your life
jacket will buoy you in the eventuality of the raft overturning.
If you've over-turned close to the river bank, don't use your
raft paddle, as you may hit someone else. Do not attempt to use
the paddle as a lever against rocks as you risk getting hit by
it.
The
following are some points to remember:
Bring a
change of clothes. A warm-up jacket is also a good idea.
Wear
well-fitting shoes, rubber shoes or sandals.
Jewellery
which cannot be secured firmly should not be worn while
rafting.
Those
wearing glasses are reminded to use an elastic sports band to anchor their spectacles.
Contact
lens users are advised to wear spectacles instead, in order
to cut down the risk of their lenses getting contaminated by
river water.
