What to expect
Your 20 km journey on the mighty Kicking Horse River has it all- spectacular scenery and thrilling white water. At Hydra we always raft our guests down both sections of the river, making this trip perfect for first-time and experienced rafters alike. We start in the calmer and scenic class one and then hit the adrenaline pumping class fours.
We believe running both sections of the river allows our guests time to familiarize themselves with the raft, paddling and guide’s commands (and go for a refreshing dip in the river) before hitting the famous and exhilarating class four rapids.
The Hydra difference- we have some off the most experienced (and entertaining) guides on the river and our beautiful rafting base (with hot showers and snacks for purchase) is located right next to the river. So, more time on the river and less time sitting in a bus.
Stop At:
• Kicking Horse River, Highway 1, Golden, British Columbia Canada

This was an overall good experience. It was a great trip, although going before September would allow for a more robust river. This river has some good level 3/4 rapids. My only request would be better rowing instructions for the group. We weren't given any tips on how to row as a team and it wasn't as fun as other rafting trips, as a result. Overall, good investment. I would just suggest the quick practicing of coordinated rowing techniqueWe booked our whitewater rafting through Banff Adventures.

We were outfitted with weather appropriate clothes and all our questions were answered. The tour was long, but I still wanted more when it was over, definitely coming back if I get the chance.
