Rafting on Tumcha river, 8 days
Tumcha
river
runs on the south of Murmansk province, behind a Polar Circle. Many
rapids make this river specially attractive. Rapids are sometimes
formed by narrow rocky ledges, too narrow for raft sometimes.
Therefore, for this river we use catamarans. All the rapids are
localized, therefore.

nights
