About

• Up to Grade 3 White Water Rafting ideal for young families or as an introduction to Whitewater Rafting
• White water rafting experience for young families, school groups, first-timers or those who enjoy a scenic journey down a river with a splash of adventure!
• Known as the “Middle Findhorn” with stunning Scottish Highland landscape, abundant wildlife, peaceful stretches interspersed by rapids with names such as; Sleeping Whale, Dragon’s Tooth and Carnage Corner. Best condition early to mid-Spring and after recent rainfall
• ACE is the only rafting operator based at the River Findhorn
• Tip: Commonly sold by competitors as a full day trip because they include the travel time from Aviemore
• ACE is mindful of other river users and works in conjunction with anglers who are enjoying the river for its serenity and the excitement of hooking some of the massive salmon that we often see remains of from the local otter population.
• The Findhorn is one of Scotland’s last wild rivers and as a consequence rainfall or snowmelt determines which sections can be run. This section is best in medium to high flows which of course cannot be predicted ahead of more than a couple of days’ time at best. If on the day water levels are too low to navigate the section we will either run as packrafting, or place you on another activity better suited to low water levels such as River Tubes.
