The ultimate rafting adventure! This trip combines the river sections rafted on the “gentle” and the “exciter” raft trips into one adventure, bringing together the stunning Kicking Horse River Valley scenery with the thrill of the Rockies’ biggest rapids. A complete package of beauty and excitement!

All gear and equipment is provided, along with changing rooms. You will receive an easy-to-understand safety briefing that also covers proper seating and paddling techniques.

Within the first few minutes, you’ll dive right into the action with the river’s wake-up call – the invigorating Class III rapid, Alarm Clock. After this energizing rapid, the river journey winds through tranquil waters with breathtaking scenery and introductory Class II to Class III whitewater. This is your training ground, where you’ll perfect your paddling for the excitement that lies ahead. You can even choose to take a refreshing dip at the swimming spot!

Following a quick pit-stop at the halfway point, you’ll plunge into the rafting big leagues and tackle the bigger, wilder, and more continuous Class II to Class IV+ whitewater. Key rapids include Hopi’s Hole (Class III+, waves up to 10 feet at high water), Rollercoaster (a Class III+ wave train through a tight canyon), Twin Peaks, and Portage and Shotgun – 1km (0.6 miles) of continuous Class IV+ whitewater dropping 110 feet of elevation and considered the best rapid in the Canadian Rockies.

Finally, as you reach the river take-out after an action-packed 24 km (15 miles) over 2 and a half hours, the bus will whisk you back to the River Base for some well-deserved refueling. Get changed in the heated changerooms, then enjoy a gourmet BBQ lunch, featuring a choice of Mediterranean-marinated chicken breast, salmon filet, or black bean veggie burger, served with freshly baked bread, Caesar salad, honey mustard coleslaw, potato salad, munchie mix, watermelon, and freshly baked chocolate chip cookies. Hot and cold beverages are also included.
