If you are real thrill seeker, join the popular Badger Chute River Rafting Tour located just a 50 minute drive from Springdale. The tour is designed for both first-timers and experienced rafters to enjoy, and it provides a great way to enjoy the thrill of whitewater without being an expert paddler. You will have the opportunity to swim throughout the day as well as at the Badger Chute and at the halfway point, they stop on a rock island to enjoy a hearty picnic lunch, kick back and relax! During lunch children and adults can explore, swim and surf the raft. Rafting the Exploits River is sure to be the highlight of your Newfoundland Vacation! We would be happy to help you plan this exciting day excursion. Check out their great website. www.riverfrontchalets.ca
