For experienced paddlers
|
Experienced paddlers looking for a challenge in North East Victoria should try the 7km stretch along the lower reaches of the Bundara River, ending at the Mitta River junction. This short day paddle offers some challenges to canoeists and kayakers, including several Grade 3-4 (difficult to very difficult) rapids.
