These rivers are most famous in Georgia and flow in the Racha-Lechkhumi region, as well as Imereti and Kvemo Svaneti. Many rafting routes from beginner level to expert level available here. Conducting rafting on these rivers is possible for one or a few days. And the best part is that you can raft along Rioni all year round. Let's take a closer look at these rivers.

The most famous river is Rioni, with the nearest settlement of Kutaisi (located 2.5 hours from Batumi, 3.5 hours from Tbilisi). The distance from Kutaisi to the starting points of rafting routes is approximately one to 2,5 hours by car. All the routes require being on the water for at least 1,5 hours. Also, you must count the time needed for instructions and equipment dressing. You should estimate the time of the event at least 3 hours without taking into account the transfer time. On the Rioni, you can find for both dynamic but light routes in the lower reaches of the river and more serious ones in the upper reaches for people who have experience.

Tskhenistskali river is a more seasonal one. On the upper reaches of the river locates challenging routes for professionals, for the lower reaches available middle-grade descent of 11 kilometers stretch, that open from March till August.

The rivers of Adjara, the most western part of Georgia, are located just an hour’s drive from the city of Batumi. The best time for rafting along them is from March to mid-July, and then after mid-October. At this time, excellent and exciting routes available on the rivers of Adjara. In summer, the water level in the rivers drops down significantly, and rafting on Machakhela and Adjaristskali looks more like flipping over from stone to stone.

At this time of the year, a good instructor pushes the boat at least twice per rafting, and a bad one always. Therefore, in the summer months, if your goal is to try rafting and not to get disappointed in it, then rafting in Adjaristsqali is best done on an inflatable kayak or canoe.

Chorokhi

Rafting on the Chorokhi river at any time of the year is a simple route, perfect for families cause on Chorokhi are a couple of straightforward rapids and a minimum dose of extreme for participants. Also, this route offers the opportunity for swimming, cliff jumping during good weather, the opportunity to go out to sea. But in summer months, the possibility of rafting on this river depends on the schedule of hydroelectric power plants located on the territories of Georgia and Turkey, so you need to ask about the possibilities of rafting in the choosing day.
