Extreme Tours, White Water Rafting Tours, North Johnston River - The Ultimate Wilderness White Water Rafting Adventure - 4 Days

The North Johnstone is a steep, natural flow river that carves its way through a spectacular volcanic gorge. Limited frequency of departures, restricted group sizes and stringent National Park permits ensure that the North Johnstone River and surrounding ancient rainforests are preserved for all time, enabling our rafters a rare glimpse of a very precious and untouched part of North Queensland’s World Heritage Rainforests.
