No Experience Required

You push off from a stone launch as the Ayung exhales; the current tugs at the raft and the guide’s voice cuts through the spray. For two hours the river alternates between playful riffles and teeth-baring rapids, framed by steep, forested banks and rice terraces that slope toward the water.
