Nominated for: BEST White Water Rafting
We run the Wenatchee River from spring until late summer and conditions differ between the early time period and the latter. Early in the season we have the spring melt-off of the snow-pack in the Cascade mountains which produces high water volumes in the rivers and for the Wenatchee is the time of the season for the Class 3 and 4 rapids and the biggest waves and longest “wave-trains”. Mother nature is unpredictable so the exact dates of the peak water flows are not known until we are in the thick of it, but generally we experience high water from early May until early July. Definitely your best choice for an exciting introduction to whitewater rafting. A trip for the beginner or experienced rafter who wants to experience the thrill of rapids. The Wenatchee River perks from Tumwater Canyon and spills into the Columbia River Valley: always at the foot of the towering Cascades. You'll shoot exciting rapids, then relax while floating through the fertile orchard country side. The trip is typically sunny, with a bit of serenity and plenty of action. The Wenatchee River is a perfect trip for groups large and small, couples or an entire family and one that is certain to make you a whitewater advocate.
