River Rafting

River Rafting in the Weat Glacier River was amazing! The experience was scary but also unforgettable. I went to Bakkaflot, about 100km from Akureyri and near Varmahild. The West Glacier river was very beautiful, the river was not so daunting as i thought it would be. However, it did have its moments. After doing the West River i want to do the East Glacier River (the harder one) i am officially in love with river rafting. The trip was a total of 3 hours, including cliff jumping and a nice hot tub chilling at the end. Bakkaflot River Rafting gave us all the equipment we need: helmets, life vest, wet suit, boots and a wet jacket. The price was about 8,900 Icelandic Kronas, that is about $73 dollars, the harder East river is 15,900 Kronas. The guides are also very experienced and very awesome, because of that i felt completely safe. I cant wait for next summer to do the East river!
