Whitewater Rafting - Kicking Horse River

This unforgettable journey begins calmly and quietly, allowing rafters to familiarize themselves with the raft, their paddles and their guides' commands.

As the Canyon narrows, the rapids of the mighty Kicking Horse begin a whitewater experience that will take each team of rafters paddling through up to class 4+ rapids, finishing 20km downstream!

You'll enjoy 2 to 2 1/2 hours of upper canyon rafting time before heading back to our site to enjoy a delicious BBQ lunch including dessert and cold drinks.
