Dandeli Adventure Activities

Dandeli Water Sports: Rafting, Kayaking, Zorbing & River Zipline

The Kali River shapes most water fun in Dandeli from calm kayaking rides in kali river to white‑water runs on post monsoon flows. Activity options change with water release and weather, so plans are built day‑by‑day for safety and the best experience.

Peak reliability is October–March. summers are warmer but good for river activities like kayaking and zipline. monsoon brings lush banks but restrictions on rafting.

Best Seasons: Oct–Mar for most options. Feb–May for longer daylight and warm water. In monsoon rafting closed/limited, choose kayak/coracle where permitted.

White Water Rafting

Timings and fee: Open daily roughly 9:00 am–6:00 pm; entry around ₹30 plus parking at the gate. Kayak/coracle tickets are separate.
Why go: Easy river access for coracles/kayaks, bamboo groves, picnic areas, and short forest paths. great for families and first‑timers.

Kayaking in Dandeli

Where: Calm Kali river in Ganeshgudi and Moulangi Eco Park zones with rental kayaks and instructors.
