What You Need to Know Beforehand
If you’re planning on partaking in white water rafting this summer, everyone boarding the raft must be over 12 years of age and weigh more than 90 lbs. We recommend wearing a swimsuit and bringing a towel and a change of clothes, but this is all you will need. Lunch can be purchased on-site, and all necessary safety equipment will be provided. This equipment includes:
- Wetsuit
- Helmet
- Fleece jacket
- Life jacket
- Neoprene booties
The rapids you will encounter on the Kicking Horse River are designated classes 1 to 4. Class 1 rapids are soft waves, whereas class 4 rapids are long, powerful, and you will definitely get wet! You do not need to have any prior experience rafting to journey on class 4 rapids because an instructor will be on your raft with you, providing guidance (and playful banter). You can rest assured that all of the guides have years of experience on the rapids!
