What you can expect

  • Enjoy a gentle family whitewater rafting trip on the Kicking Horse River, the best rafting river in the Canadian Rockies. Start from the private river base and enjoy a serene float down the Kicking Horse River. Marvel at the scenery, look out for wildlife and enjoy some commentary from your friendly guide.

    Then it's onto some whitewater! Get a taste of the rapids, enjoy the splashes from class 1-2 waves and maybe even share in a rival raft water fight.

    After your trip, back in dry clothes, check out your group rafting shots and pick up a souvenir of your day.

    Tour includes everything to get you on the river: wetsuit, fleece, spray jacket, life jacket, neoprene booties and helmet plus guide instruction and safety briefing. Please bring a swimming costume, towel & bag for personal belongings. There is a secure place on site to leave your belongings while rafting.
