Kali River expeditions

Disciplined expeditions on the Kali River

Certified white-water guiding and unhurried forest tracking in the Western Ghats. Every run is scheduled to daily dam releases with safety-first protocol.

Water activities

Paddling through mist-covered flat waters near the resort shoreline before the river swell begins, catching river otters and kingfishers feeding along the shallows.

Rigged river crossings

High-tensile zip traverses across the Kali gorge supervised by certified rope technicians with dual carabiner backups and full-body harnesses.

Grade II and III white-water rafting

Nine kilometers of technical rapids mapped precisely to Supa Dam water releases. Guided by certified river professionals with high-buoyancy vests and self-bailing crafts.
