Klamath River RaftingThe Klamath River is a great place for some white water play. Discover for yourself what makes the Upper Klamath River the place to be for west coast rafting.  There are three sections available for rafting and each has a very different face. Two sections offer half day fun suitable for families and beginners.  Our full day trip through the wild and scenic canyon offers some of the best class IV+ rafting in the United States.

Klamath Redband Rainbow RunFun for the entire family!  This stretch of river is designated wild and scenic and even the drive in will make it apparent why.  Be ready for mellow sun soaking stretches and some great class II and III rolling splashing rapids.  You'll enjoy the rich history along with gorgeous canyon views.  Some days we don't see another soul on the river.  Water time is about 1.5 to 2 hours depending on the water level.  Enjoy a snack before you head out on the bumpy and remote road.  Wild and scenic baby!

Klamath River Sentry Rock Itinerary
Guests and guides meet at the Roe Outfitters office or at the Running Y Resort. Drive aprox. 40 minutes to the river. We will have a brief paddling and safety orientation prior to putting on the water. You will paddle through some class II and III rapids almost immediately on entering the river.  Moderate stretches of white water and calm pools follow with a class IV finale just before heading into a calm take out.  The Klamath River winds its way through a scenic canyon where you can experience an abundance of birds and other wildlife.

Upper Klamath Wild and Scenic Rafting - Full day Get ready for a heart pounding, soul drenching whitewater trip.  This river has cut a canyon through the Southern Cascades.  With 30+ rapids of class III to turbulent class IV+ rapids this river run is about 12 miles long and has a seven mile section that rarely slows.  You'll roll through long rapids and drops andshoot through short high waves. Somewhere in the middle you'll find yourself in a half mile long rapid called Hells Corner.  By the end of the day you'll be needing a nap! 

Each large raft will hold up to 7 adults. Waterproof cameras are encouraged to capture some memorable shots of you and your family or friends. The Roe Outfitters van will be at the take-out on your half-day trip to transport you back to your vehicle at our office or the Running Y.
