Franklin River in Tasmania

42 degrees south lays a small island known as Tasmania, a sleepy island state belonging to the big island continent Australia.

Not many people have heard of Tasmania making it a truly unique holiday destination for the traveler that seeks something a little different without the crowds.

Sjoa Rafting guides Franziska Ruetz and Elias Eichler have made this quaint little island their home. This begs the question since Tasmania is about as far away as you can get from Sjoa why would two river guides choose it as their home. The answer, The Franklin River. Snaking its way through the magnificent Tasmanian World Heritage Area the Franklin River is one of the last truly wild and pristine rivers left on the planet.
