The Rio Toachi in Ecuador is world famous for its unique rafting conditions. Located on the western stretches of the Ecuadorian Andes, the river runs through deep-cut valleys and splendid locales. Once on a rafting trip on the river, the whitewaters will surely enthrall and excite you! The Rio Toachi offers rapids of Class III and IV, providing the rafters ample scope to raft down the course.
As you proceed further, then you can see the river running through deep forests and the rapids turning more difficult for rafting.
