Sunlight cuts through limestone walls as the river narrows — a greenish current threading between craggy cliffs and olive-scrubbed slopes. You step into a 5mm wetsuit, the neoprene snug against the chill, and feel the river already tugging at your attention. Guides give a quick paddle briefing, the raft sits low and nervous on the water, and for the next three hours the current becomes the clock, the challenge and the payoff.
