River Bugs

Get ready for an adrenaline rush with a River Bugging session at Safe and Sound Outdoors.
River Bugging is a unique and fun-filled way for students to experience the thrill of navigating the rapids and whitewater of the river on their own in a "bug" - a one-person inflatable craft. Our experienced instructors at Safe and Sound will provide all the necessary training and equipment, ensuring that your students have a safe and exciting adventure on the River Dee. Our standard River Bugging sessions are suitable for confident swimmers aged 12 up, looking for a way to play on the river but with a little bit more excitement.


We use a stretch of river that provides challenge and fun in equal measure - with gentle sections for fun and games, as well as whirling eddies and even some rapids to tackle which will test their balance, coordination and courage!
Safe and Sound Outdoors are proud to be one of the only companies in the UK that offer River Bugging. Contact us today to book this unique and unforgettable activity.
