Experience rapids on the Snake River!

Enjoy your morning or afternoon in the canyon of the Snake River with epic guides who know how to show you a great time!

When is the best time of year to go rafting on the snake? 

The whitewater stretch of the Snake River is an awesome place to go whitewater rafting because the river stays fun, exciting, and safe, with breathtaking views in the Spring, Summer, and Fall. It being a snow-fed river, the spring offers more exciting river flows while the middle of the summer has MORE rapids accompanied by warm summer weather. Even in the fall at lower river flows, the Snake still offers fun whitewater with stunning fall foliage views, an excellent contrast, and a less busy time of year on the river. Any time they are offering trips is an amazing time to experience the Snake River while visiting Jackson Hole.

Do I have to paddle? 

If you want to paddle, there is always an opportunity to! With the larger classic raft option, there are most likely spaces in the boat for guests to ride in the middle and just enjoy the ride if they desire. While in the small raft option, ALL participants are required to paddle the raft to power the group's adventure.

Choosing the type of boat for your party

The smaller raft is exactly that, which comes with fewer people in the raft and a bigger ride be prepared to paddle hard to help your small boat make it through big waves like Big Kahuna. The Classic raft also still hits all those big waves but has more stability and people in the raft to power the adventure. For guests with less physical ability or if you are nervous about whitewater rafting, then the Classic Raft is the better choice for you.

Fun for families 

The minimum age for this tour is six years old. This is an adventure tour that involves paddling through rapids with the assistance and instruction of an experienced whitewater guide. What should I wear for my whitewater trip?

What Should I wear?

A simple rule of thumb for any trip on the river is "Cotton kills." Not really, but it's not a good idea. Most synthetic, non-cotton clothing dries much faster and will ultimately keep you warmer when wet. Base layers or rash guards are always good for colder weather trips, and in some cases, wet suits may be provided but are available for rent. Bringing your rain jacket is always nice and will work well for wind and splash guards. Swimsuits are the best option for warm weather or under a wetsuit on colder days; it is the river, after all, so you'll get wet! Footwear should be secure, so something like Chacos, Tevas, or other water shoes are best.
