Looking for a unique Pacific Northwest outdoor adventure? Join us for exciting rapids and gorgeous scenery on the world class Wild and Scenic Rogue River.

​

The Wild and Scenic section of the Rogue River is one of the most beautiful and unique places on earth. This is the trip if you're looking to truly experience the magic of the Pacific Northwest, to be fully immersed in wild beauty. We float 34 miles in four or five days through this coastal canyon river corridor teaming with wildlife. Depending on the trip, we offer camping or accommodation in historic lodges along the river (based upon availability, please book early), or a mix of both. Our friendly staff will prepare delicious meals and snacks each day, and you'll have access to the Rogue River Trail, which parallels the river through the length of the canyon.

 

This adventure features sections of smooth glassy water as well as significant whitewater rapids. Rainey Falls is a great place for family photos. Then hold on tight and prepare to get wet as we raft through whitewater at Mule Creek Canyon and Blossom Bar, both rated Class IV.

 

There are limited summer trips available, but we mostly offer the unique opportunity to see the Rogue in the fall, with milder temperatures and fewer crowds. The hillsides glow with autumn colors and foraging wildlife. Mornings and evenings are crisp while days are still usually sunny and warm, especially in September and October. Be sure to bring your camera for shots you won't find anywhere else and keep your eyes open for black bears with cubs.

​

This trip operates on the traditional territory of the ancestral lands of the Cow Creek Umpqua, Confederated Tribes of Grand Ronde, Tolowa Dee-ni’, Takelma and Confederated Tribes of Siletz Indians.

​

TRANSPORTATION

We will meet you near the river at the start of the trip and drive you back to your vehicle at the end of the trip. For an additional fee you can arrange to have your personal vehicle shuttled to the takeout. We recommend the personal vehicle shuttle if you are planning to visit the coast, Crater Lake, the Redwoods, or any other local attractions before heading home.

​

BOATS

We will explore the river in Arrowhead River Adventures whitewater rafts, typically with six participants and one guide per boat. Experienced guides will show you all the river has to offer, including side hikes along the Rogue River Trail, which parallels the river through the length of the canyon.

 

ACCOMMODATION

Depending on the trip, we offer riverside camping or accommodation in historic lodges along the river (based upon availability, please book early), or a mix of both. All equipment is provided on camping trips. Lodge stays includes a private room and bathroom with a hot shower.

​

MEALS

During lodge stays, lodge staff prepare two delicious meals a day, and you'll enjoy riverside lunches prepared by Arrowhead staff. While camping, our river guides will prepare meals, and of course there will be no shortage of snacks.
