Whitewater rafting with Idaho Afloat provides deluxe river rafting adventures on the Snake River, through Hells Canyon, the Main Salmon "The River of No Return", and on the Lower Salmon River.
Our whitewater river trips offer families, first-time and experienced rafters a variety of multi-day soft adventure excitement.
The Snake River through Hells Canyon (rated Class IV) is the deepest canyon in North American and has the most powerful whitewater in the Northwest. You will run the rapids, see ancient pictographs, explore old homesteads, hike riverside trails, and have time to relax and enjoy the sounds of nature.
The Lower Salmon River Gorge (rated Class III) offers solitude, four spectacular canyons, and incredible white sandy beaches with clear and cool pools for swimming and daydreaming.
The Main Salmon (rated Class III) with its many sandy beaches and heavily forested canyons, captivate you while searching for wild life as you navigate the 80 miles bordering the Frank Church Wilderness (2.39 million acres).
The Idaho Afloat guides are highly-trained, highly professional, and highly motivated to insure that you have the time of your life.
At our riverside camps you will find your dining area complete with tables, camp chairs, and even tablecloths. After you have settled into camp, your guides will prepare the evening's hor d'oeuvres complete with wine and other beverages. We spare no effort or expense to make our river cuisine the best ever!
