The Wenatchee River Valley offers diverse scenery and excellent whitewater
rafting. We offer whitewater trips as well as scenic float trips and Fall Color Tours. The begining of the full river trip starts in the alpine setting of Ponderosa pines and
Douglas Fir near the "Bavarian Village" of Leavenworth. Marvel
at how the valley becomes increasingly arid and is near desert as it
reaches the Columbia River at Wenatchee. Irrigation in the valley is
the source of abundant water for the apple and pear orchards that line
the river. Our guides can make your trip as wild or mild as you like. This type of river is characterized by what
we call a drop and pool river: great rapids like Boulder Bend, Rock
n' Roll,Drunkards Drop, and Snow Blind. Corporate groups, families and friends come back here
year after year for the combination of great water and lots of sunshine. We offer
a wild 10 mile class III trip through the best rapids on the Wenatchee. The full
day trip is 16 Class III miles. 3.5 hours with a riverside snack included. White water trips on the Wenatchee are available April thru August.
Full trip 16miles $79per person / Whitewater 10mile trip $64
