The adventure begins in Gold Hill, only a few miles off of I-5 Exit 35.
Rafting: We offer one of the wildest rides on the Rogue River. This trip is safe enough for beginner paddles from age 6 to 86, but exciting enough to get the most experienced of white water enthusiasts hearts pumping.

What To Expect
Stern Drive Paddle Rafting: The best option for beginners and families. Your guide will have a frame mounted in the back of the boat with oars, while you help navigate with paddles.
Paddle Boating: This option is best for those looking for a little more of a challenge, as more responsibility is on the paddle crew. Your guide will give paddle commands and steer from the back of the raft with a paddle. The paddling team must work together with power and precision to successfully navigate rapids.
