Overview

This 3 Day Soft Adventure Whitewater Rafting & Resort Package includes a fun whitewater rafting trip and a day spent at the OWL waterfront resort playing and relaxing. This trip is geared for everyone including seniors and families with children. The whitewater rafting day is spent descending 8km of beautiful scenery and tumbling whitewater, interspersed with quiet pools where you get to body surf and float in the friendly warm waters.
Experience the great Canadian river trip – this is a travel-path forged by First Nations, traversed by fur traders since the 1600’s and fostered by foresters at the turn of the last century. An introduction to whitewater is a full day natural roller coaster where you’ll paddle as a team – your experienced guide steers from the stern – all you have to do is listen for directions, join in and have fun. This soft adventure trip descends 8 km of beautiful scenery and tumbling whitewater, interspersed with quiet pools where you get to body surf and float in the friendly warm waters. As the currents calm down, we transfer to the comfort of our signature Pontoon Boat to enjoy a freshly grilled meal. Relax and reenergize while you cruise back to the OWL Resort and take in the beauty of the Canadian Shield. At the resort a video presentation will let you relive your day’s adventure. Enjoy our beachfront resort with many fun activites to try!

What Guests Are Saying

We chose the soft adventure. Our guide Collin was really great and knew his way around the river and made sure we had the most exhilarating experience. We had a BBQ lunch on the way back on a Pontoon and the food was really yummy and made from scratch by the team. I would definitely recommend OWL Rafting!
