YOUR DENALI, ALASKA WHITEWATER RAFTING ADVENTURE STARTS HERE!

Canyon Whitewater Run

Hang on! It’s whitewater ahead! You’ll get wet and enjoy every minute of it as we head for Healy, 11 miles down river.
Get into real whitewater rafting as you hang on through thrilling rapids such as “Razorback”, “Coffee Grinder”, and “Ice Worm”!

You have your choice of Oar Rafts or Paddle Rafts  (It takes 5 participants to paddle, when possible we combine parties to reach five or more).
Both oar rafts and paddle rafts run the same rapids on the river.  Perfect for 1st timers, an oar raft, is rowed by the guide while rafters sit, hold on and enjoy the view.  In a paddle raft you will be expected to follow instructions and be an active participant by paddling the raft down river.  You still have a guide but everyone has a paddle and the guide instructs you on how and when to paddle.
Our Shuttle Service provides pickup from local lodging, plus transportation to and from the river.

“We had a great time with Denali Raft Adventures. Our guides Chris and Dylan were so fun and clearly knew what they were doing. We chose the activity with rapids reaching level IV, but always felt safe and never scared. This is a testament to the paddling skill of the guide on our boat, Chris. The suits they have you wear are amazing! Great way to see the scenery from a different viewpoint. Overall, highly recommend!”
