We continue our guide of the River Dart in Dartmoor, Water Freedom System Reviewprobably the most popular location in the UK for natural white water rafting and kayaking. There are three main sections to the River Dart, the Upper, Lower and Loop sections all have their own unique aspects and are challenging to a range of kayakers of all different levels. In the last article we were half way down the Loop sections and we had just navigated the ‘Lovers Leap' section.
The next section is Triple Drop or Triple Falls; this is the most difficult section on the River Dart and is for experienced white water rafters and kayakers. The first drop is half a metre drop, the second drop is a large wave stopper into a pool and the third drop is the much harder and has to be taken in the centre followed by movement to the left of right to avoid the stopper in the centre line. There is a flat pool after this drop which accommodates boats and people who need to be helped to the river bank.
Once you have managed to navigate the difficult ‘Triple Falls' section you are swiftly onto the ‘Spindryer'. At high water levels over the winter months the right hand side of the river generates a fast rotating eddy which can turn the kayak or raft full circle; this is where the name comes from. The best line is to aim for the left of the river to avoid the eddy and flow out of the other side.
