Our most extreme adventure! You will meet at our beautiful basecamp right at the Kicking Horse river just 25km east of Golden, BC. More time outdoors & less time on the bus! In the upper and middle canyons, the rafting starts out slowly, then picks up until you’re getting drenched in continuous class III to IV rapids .You won’t forget rafting Portage, Shotgun, Last Waltz and all the other amazing rafting along the way. It’s the best rafting trip in BC for the outdoor adventurer. Paddle commands, get to know your guide and become comfortable in the boat, but does not miss out on any of the amazing rapids that the Kicking Horse River is known for! A definite MUST do near Golden, Banff and Lake Louise.

    The rafting guide, Ben, was very professional and witty to help my family enjoy the rafting. The rafting itself suited well the level of my family including one minor.

    Our guide Ben was super helpful and informative although he scared the crap out of us during the safety briefing! Rapids we were told we’re really low for the the time of year- pretty sure at least one of us would have fallen out if it had been high.

  • Excellent adventure for all!
