What you can expect

Discover the Kicking Horse River in British Columbia on a fast-paced action-packed rafting trip. Paddle down the biggest and best rapids on the river with your instructor and get soaked.
Before you jump in the boat, you will meet your river guides and get kitted out with all the necessary rafting gear. Get to know your fellow rafters and find out fun facts about the river as you take in the views of the serene upper section.
From there, you will head to the river and start rafting on a relatively calm stretch of water. Become acquainted with your guides’ commands, your paddle, and your boat before floating to the bigger rapids.
Soon the canyon narrows and the true excitement begins, taking you on a pulse-pounding trip through the thrills and spills of the river’s Class IV white water. Discover the exhilarating rapids Shot Gun, Man Eater, and Roller Coaster. Work as a team to take on the rapids.
Finish your rafting odyssey 12 miles (20 kilometres) downstream, where you’ll disembark the raft. Board the shuttle back to the Hydra River Base. Rinse off in beach-style showers and get changed. Swap stories with your fellow rafters about your favourite rapids.
