What Can I Expect
Lee Valley white water choice - our most flexible voucher for anyone who loves the rapids. There are 160-metres of white water on the Legacy Loop at Lee Valley and it's up to you how you get down them!
If you buy a voucher for one, you have the choice between white water rafting and hydrospeeding. If you buy a voucher for two, you choose from rafting, hydrospeeding or hot dogs for your white water activity.
Rafting is probably the white water pick that needs no introduction. You basically clamber onboard an raft and, with your one-bladed paddle, you negotiate your way down the rapids. With up to nine of you in a raft, it's going to be bumpy, bouncy and pretty fast!
Hydrospeeding is a bit like bodyboarding, but on fast flowing water, rather than catching waves in the sea. You'll be riding solo for this activity, with each hydrospeeder equipped with a board and flippers. It's ridiculously fun, as you splish-splash around all over the place, bobbing along on your board.
The hot dogs are for two people. These inflatable kayaks are surprisingly steady and rugged. Each armed with your two-bladed paddle, you'll have to work as a duo to tackle those fast-moving waters, otherwise you might end up just going round in circles?
However you choose to get down the rapids at Lee Valley, you're sure to do it with a huge smile on your face and with the sound of laughter all around. And of course, we should point out that all of the activities involve getting wet to some degree or other, but that's what it's all about!
Buy your Lee Valley White Water Choice voucher now and get ready to ride those rapids whichever way you like!
