Wildwater

Wildwater, or whitewater, refers to fast-moving, turbulent sections of a river characterized by rapids caused by steep gradients, obstacles, and changes in water flow. These areas feature churning water, waves, and splashes that can vary from slightly rough to extremely challenging. They are popular for adventure sports like kayaking, canoeing, and rafting. The difficulty depends on factors such as current speed, water volume, and the presence of rocks or drops. Proper skills, equipment, and safety measures are essential to navigate wildwater environments safely.
