This river forms much of the boundary between Namibia and South Africa and is a very attractive area with lush, green vegetation and interesting scenery. Guided river rafting and canoe trips are run here which offer participants the opportunity to experience this beautiful area from a different perspective. Guests must be fit, although the trips do not require excessive exertion.

Most trips run between Noordoewer and Selingsdrif, part of this route runs along the boundary between Namibia's Fish River Canyon National Park and South Africa's Richtersveld National Park.
