What is it ?

The packraft is a concept that was developed in the 1960s by explorers and adventurers who were looking for a way to navigate wild waters while having the ability to easily carry their inflatable craft with them. It is often used for outdoor activities like canoeing, hiking, camping and wilderness adventure. Packrafts can be used on calm waters like rivers, lakes and streams, as well as white waters. Modern materials used to make packrafts are strong and resilient, allowing users to navigate safely in varying conditions.
