Rafting

Rafting and white water rafting are recreational outdoor activities which use an inflatable raft to navigate a river or other body of water. This is often done on whitewater or different degrees of rough water, and generally represents a new and challenging environment for participants. Dealing with risk and the need for teamwork is often a part of the experience.[1] The development of this activity as a leisure sport has become popular since the mid-1970s, evolving from individuals paddling 10 feet (3.0 m) rafts with double-bladed paddles to multi-person rafts propelled by single-bladed paddles and steered by a tour guide at the stern. It is considered an extreme sport, and can be fatal. The International Rafting Federation (IRF) is the worldwide body which oversees all aspects of the sport.

Türkçesi

Rafting akarsu üzerinde yapılan ve akarsu sporlarının en çok ilgi gören dalıdır. Nehir ve çay gibi akarsular yatakları içinde akarken kaya, ağaç kütüğü, kısa veya uzun çağlayan gibi bir takım doğal engellerle karşılaşır ve bu nedenle suyun akış hızı (debi) zaman zaman değişir. Bazen de su yüksekten dökülerek kısa çağlayanlar oluşturur. Akarsuyun içinde oluşan bu tür oluşumlara Rapid adı verilir. Akarsuyun içindeki bu tür engeller zorluk derecelerine göre derecelendirilir. En kolay rafting 1. derece olan, en zor rafting ise 6. derece olandır ki 6. derece raftingler hemen hemen geçilemeyecek kadar zor parkurlardır.

Walking

Walking is one of the most popular outdoor recreational activities in the United Kingdom,[1] and within England and Wales there is a comprehensive network of rights of way that permits easy access to the countryside. Access is also easy in Scotland but not in Northern Ireland. Walking is used in the United Kingdom to describe all forms of walking, whether it is a walk in the park or trekking in the Alps. Hiking is used in the UK, but less often than walking. Within the UK walking is sometimes called rambling, and the main organisation that supports walking is the Ramblers. Walking in mountainous areas in the UK is called hillwalking, or in Northern England, including the Lake District and Yorkshire Dales, fellwalking, from the dialect word fell, for high, uncultivated land. Mountain walking can sometimes involve scrambling.
