A day off from rafting yesterday...but still on the water ;) This summer is a great one to check out those national parks. Which lake is this? The past few years you could not drive to it in the summer months because there were so many people..
A great video from a guest! How did this compare to your experience? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KISkQ4Oltic

We're open and off to a great start! Water is high, smiles are big and we're getting soaked out there!

Here we go! Opening this Saturday! "British Columbia’s has officially entered Phase 3 of their restart plan, and Golden is ready to welcome visitors from British Columbia and other provinces back to our mountain community."
Happy Canada Day from all of us on the Kicking Horse River in Golden, BC!
BC enters phase 3 and we're ready for you! Dr. Bonnie and Hulk Horgan with this to say: "As British Columbians get the blessing to travel further afield in the province, Horgan said there was no plan to restrict out-of-province visitors from entering B.C." "I don't see us ever putting in restrictions. We haven't so far," Henry said. "But we want people to have their travel manners on Make sure they're doing what we've been doing, so that we can all stay safe in our communities here in B.C. and when people are going back and forth to their communities in other provinces."

The Kicking Horse River is pumping right now! The next few weeks of rafting are going to amazing. It all Kick's off June 27. Grab your group and lets do this!
OPEN. IN. 2. DAYS
Our guides are out playing on the Kicking Horse River, eager for opening up June 27. Wide open spaces, nature, whitewater.. it's all waiting for us!
This video was taken a few days ago. Heavy rains and tons of snow still in the mountains caused the Kicking Horse River to swell. This is the unraftable section right under the Trans Canada highway! By the time we are rafting on June 27 the water levels still be exciting and high, but not this high! ;)

A glimpse at our full day Discovery trip. Starting June 27!
We are opening for rafting June 27! With new safety procedures to keep us all as safe as possible and abide by government guidelines, we are so exited to get back on the river and breathe in that fresh mountain air. The best way to come rafting is with your group or bubble. You can book a private raft with a group of 4-8 people. You can find more information on our Covid-19 plan and policies on our website: https://alpinerafting.com/... Thank you for being so patient and we hope to see you this summer!

Due to group gathering restrictions, we can only take 40 people rafting per trip. The will give the trips a more intimate and relaxing feel while we crash through the rapids! Be sure to book in advance to make sure we have space for your group. https://alpinerafting.com/
We're looking forward to feeling the chill of glacial water down our wetsuits. Let's continue to stay home now so we can get back outside and adventuring as soon as possible! https://alpinerafting.com/trip-types/whitewater-rafting/

This section of rapids is called Portage Shotgun. It's almost 1 km of continuous class 3-4 whitewater to start our daily run down the middle canyon of the Kicking Horse River. Fingers crossed it's daily this summer - we'll keep you posted as we know more! https://alpinerafting.com/
As the days get warmer we're hoping we get to share part of our summer with you! We're doing our part and staying home and keeping our fingers crossed we'll be back to adventuring really soon https://alpinerafting.com/
Good morning What are the first things you want to do when we're able to be out and about again? For us it's floating in the sun down our beautiful river! https://alpinerafting.com/

We're fortunate enough to see wildlife a lot of days when we're out by the river. Big horn sheep are a popular sight, and we also see bear, moose, mountain goats and deer. https://alpinerafting.com/
Here's how we like to start our day. The calm and scenic before the excitement and waves! We'll let you know when we're able to do this again! https://alpinerafting.com/
July 18th. We don't know what's in store for us yet, but if all goes well we hope it looks something like this. https://alpinerafting.com//kicking-horse-river-heli-rafti/

Flowing from the glaciers high up in the Canadian Rocky Mountains, The Kicking Horse River! While we are stuck at home, trying to get through this Pandemic, we are thinking about what we'll do once it's over! Stay safe. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sy2upXh7Kt0
It’s hard to imagine 2 months ago that the whole world would be shut down right now, but here we stand. At Alpine Rafting, we’ve been through some thick and thin, but nothing quite like this. All we can do is wait, be safe and plan for when we can be outside again with family and friends. It’s important we all adhere to the precautions we are told to take. The better we are at that now, the sooner we can get back to life as we want it. ... We’re looking forward to coming out the other side of this pandemic with a renewed appreciation for the life we are so lucky to have. We can do this, and we’ll be back at it in no time! From the whole Alpine Team, stay healthy and safe.

Ages 4 and up are perfect for this trip. https://alpinerafting.com//kicking-horse-river-family-raf/
