Extreme video of Whitewater Rafting on the Gauley River in West Virginia, which has been rated the 7th best river in the world for rafting:

The Gauley River is one of the most popular rivers in North America for advanced rafters.

The river Nile, near Jinja, offers whitewater rafting, kayaking and river surfing that are on a par with the mighty Zambezi, but without the crowds. The rapids are big and intimidating, but it doesn’t deter the adrenalin seekers who come for the one day fix, or an overnight adventure. Once you’re hooked you can learn to kayak and plot your own route, or even head down the river in a tandem kayak or on a riverboard.

Uganda may not be your first choice of location for a whitewater holiday but as this article at iAfrica shows there are some great whitewater adventures on offer as well as the opportunity to experience extreme wildlife and activities in a beautiful and friendly part of Africa.
