Description

If you have previous rafting experience and are ready for an exciting new challenge, Sportyak Rouge River is for you ! Each self-bailing sportyak seats 1 or 2 paddlers and our kayak guides will instruct you in paddling techniques and accompany you in their own kayaks as you negotiate the Rouge river. This Sportyak Rouge River trip follows the same descent as the Classic Rafting trip.

You can choose a full day activity including 2 runs of the rapids, lunch and dinner, or the half-day trip with only one run of the rapids.

FAQ

When should I reserve?

A day in advance is sufficient. We have many rafts available but we need to know in advance how many people will use the transport we provide.

Do I need a wetsuit?

Early in the season it is necessary although once the summer has begun, the water is warm enough to wear only bathing suits with a windbreaker and/or fleece. For the family rafting, it is included during the whole season, for the classic, express, sportyak and kayak, it is included only until May 31. You can rent wetsuits for $14. You will need a photo ID to do so. Consult our What to wear information page.

When is the lunch served, and what is for lunch?

The Lunch (included in the family rafting and full days) is served after the first descent on the river. It’s a good idea to have a snack before leaving for the trip. It is a simple lunch with a variety of sandwiches served with vegetables and juice. Dinner (included in the full days) is served after the 2nd decent on the river. On the menu, steak or salmon, served with salad, vegetables and rice or potatoes. For those with allergies or for vegetarians, please specify upon reservation and we will be able to accommodate your requests.

Where do I leave my things?

If you have taken the option with transport, you will be leaving your belongings on the locked bus.
If you have taken the option without transport, you may leave your bags in your car. You may leave your keys with the receptionist.

If I drive myself is there free parking and will they bring me back to my car?

Yes there is free parking at base camp. The rafting trip starts from base camp and heads upstream via bus. We return to base camp via the river.

Will I get wet or fall in?

Probably. Before getting on the water, those who want a rougher ride will be put in a different raft from those who want an easier ride. Even if you do not end up in the river, waves often wash over the entire raft. It’s all part of the fun.

How should I dress and what to bring?

Consult our What to wear information page.

Comments: Finding the initial meeting point was still difficult,even with the detailed explanation. Maybe say right side of lift when looking up the hill would have also helped as we went up the other side and then stressed when we saw no one.

Comments: We enjoyed the rafting - but it would have been helpful to know it was 75 minutes away and the whole activity plus transport would be 7 hours (met the shuttle at 11, arrived back at 6). We loved everything, but we had to rush to alter our dinner plans after we returned. Pictures were a little expensive but not too bad.

Hi,

Thankyou for taking the time to give us feedback.

Our Family Rafting is not normally 75 minutes away. Because of a very late srping, we had higher than normal water levels for a few days during your visit in June. When levels are above 100 cubic meters, which was the case, we move to a different section of the river that is further away. Its our fault, as our guides did not let our reservation staff know of the change. We're very sorry for the inconvenience it caused you.
