The Rogue River might just be the perfect rafting trip. This beloved OARS adventure features exciting whitewater that’s fun for all levels, beach camping, magical side hikes, and abundant wildlife viewing. Choose from a 3-, 4- or 5-day Rogue River rafting trip with OARS and journey down 40 miles of this scenic waterway in southwestern Oregon, through the storied Siskiyou Mountains, explored for centuries by Native Americans, trappers, and gold prospectors. One of the original eight rivers to gain federal “Wild & Scenic” designation in 1968, the Rogue River winds through one of the most beautiful pine-forested canyons in North America. What’s more, the warm, gently surging waters of the Rogue River combine with “one-of-a-kind” rapids, which provide plenty of whitewater excitement – without an “extreme” element. Rogue River rapids like Blossom Bar and Rainey Falls are sure to inspire a generous dose of adrenaline interspersed with lots of calm float time in between. For the more adventurous, our inflatable kayaks provide an up-close and personal encounter with the Rogue’s rollicking whitewater. A family rafting tour that ties well into a visit to the state’s untouched ocean beaches and nearby national parks like Crater Lake, a Rogue River whitewater trip is an ideal addition to any Oregon adventure vacation
