Rafting
River rafting in the Dominican Republic takes place in the mountains of the Cordillera Central along the country's longest river, the Yaque del Norte. The river is considered to be a quite technical one, and rafting here is more interesting in wet months of the year, with plenty of water.

The majority of companies, organizing rafting tours, are based in the town of Jarabacoa. Rafting boats are usually big enough for about eight people. Life jackets, helmets and wet suits are provided by a rafting company.
Canyoning
Canyoning (frequently referred to as "canyoneering" in the United States) is a fascinating form of outdoor activity, including hiking, climbing, jumping, swimming and rappelling to the bottom of a river canyon - in other words, all actions you have to do to get from Point A to Point B. The aim of canyoning is to overcome the obstacles you meet on your way.
Canyoning can be done in any place with suitable and challenging terrain. Mountain rivers of the Dominican Republic are perfect for this activity.
The equipment you need for canyoning includes a helmet, wet suit, harness and ropes. All these things are usually provided by companies that organize canyoning tours.
