Padar River Whitewater Rafting
Beaufort, SABAH

For those who enthusiast in adventure, thrill and water - yes water, Padas River offer this excitement. Situated in Beaufort - that means Beautiful Fort - the river has been graded 2 -3 (especially in raining season) for the whitewater rafting.

All you guys needed the guts to paddle till the end of the trail and emm some money to pay for the service. I can't remember how much is it - but to reduce the amount paid is by organizing it with more people. This is one of the time that you can ride and have experience with the only service train available in Borneo island! You even can go to the Interior part of Sabah (namely Tenom) using the same train service.

We didn't took a lot of photos while rafting as the guide forgot to put negative films inside his camera - CURSE HIM! But the memory will lasted as for me this is once-in-a-lifetime experience. I still wanna do it again!
