Highlights

Splash River Tummel White Water Rafting is situated just north of Pitlochry. Pitlochry is in Highland Perthshire Scotland. The River Tummel is like no other in Scotland. The rafting experience will get you working together with our guide. You need to guide the raft from the beautiful deep pools, down through technical rapids such as Zig-Zag and Sharks Tooth.

The main part of the trip is Grade II/III. This prepares you for the final ‘piece de la resistance’: a two-tier, 18 foot drop (Grade IV) rapid. This drops into the mystical Loch Faskally where we float away from the falls towards home reflecting on the rivers power and beauty.

River Bugs are 1-person rafts that look like giant inflatable armchairs and are perfect to those looking for a unique adventure experience on the  River Tummel. River levels in the summer means River Bugging is ideal for those looking for a little more excitement on the river.

Splash has pioneered River Bugging here in Scotland and as such we are the most experience provider of this fun outdoor activity. On the day you’ll receive expert instruction from our experienced river bug guides and we’ll even provide you with your own webbed gloves. We’ll also be on hand to help you negotiate your own path down the white water rapids.

Amazing fun experience even for beginners - River tummel was a perfect first time rafting experience provided by splash, the guides are experienced and friendly, and made everyone feel confident, the nepalise guide we had was really good especially, we will go back again maybe when the water levels are higher as the boat did bottom out a couple of times but it didn't affect the level of fun for the group, and wouldnt stop me going back for another go

Genuinely brilliant, couldn't recommend highly enough - We booked to go rafting in the morning and river bugging in the afternoon as part of our anniversary weekend away, and it was brilliant from start to finish. Our guides Jo (rafting) and James (bugging) were incredibly experienced and really tailored the sessions to what we wanted. The company also pulled together a package for us including a self-catering lodge at the nearby Moness Resort, making the planning really simple. We will definitely be back and have already recommended to friends and family. Thanks Splash!
