Whitewater Rafting

Whitewater rafting

Feel the Rush of the River

Experience Wells Gray Park from the water as you feel the rush of a wilderness whitewater rafting adventure on the Clearwater River. Paddle churning whitewater rapids, take a relaxed float along a slow running river, or ride a watery rollercoaster of chutes, volcanic canyons and flats. Kick back, relax and keep your eyes peeled for eagles, bears and high, jumping salmon as you experience and epic adventure that sets your pulse racing.

Wells Gray Park includes two of the world’s largest rivers (by volume) to occur within an entirely protected area (the Clearwater and Murtle Rivers). The Clearwater River with its churning Class I-IV rapids is always the star of the show. Take your pick of trips with three guiding companies ranging from several hours to several days for adults, and with some trips even suitable for children.
