Elk River or Bull River?

In the spring when the river levels are up we have the option to run the Bull River or the Elk River. We will pick the best option depending on the water flows for that day. Both rivers are epic in their own right, river level dependent.

What To Expect

Elk River

To get to the river we have to hike down a long set of stairs, into the base of the canyon. We travel 16 kms down a stretch of the lower Elk River with a stop for a delicious river side lunch, cultivated up by our multi-talented guides/chefs. Along the way you will experience exciting white water canyons, cliff jumping and stunning scenery and wildlife. The best day of your summer awaits!

Bull River

To begin your adventure, we have a off-road in a bus experience up a forestry road, driving alongside the Bull River, up a pristine and remote river valley. Stunning mountain scenery steeped in history surrounds you as you crash thru waves, paddling through an epic Rocky Mountain canyon. Again with a stop-over for a delicious deli lunch by our expert chefs along the way!

Testimonials

"This was a fantastic experience. Group of six adults. Blair runs a great company. Great stretch of river. Exceptionally skilled, competent and friendly guides. TallPaul took our group through with finesse, skill and humour. Emphasis on safety without compromising the experience. Ab-fab riverside lunch. Cliff jumping added a bit more adrenaline. Swimming/ floating along the raft isa nice way to cool down a bit. Rational approach to COVID. I would highly recommend this trip."

"What a fantastic company to raft with, very organized, friendly and extremely knowledgable staff. Best experience we have had with any raft company, with the most breath taking views and most wonderful lunch provided, complete with a birthday cake for my Dads 60th. Highly recommend going with Canyon Raft Company if looking for the best day on the river with a great company in the Fernie area."

"The River Wild was an awesome experience from top to bottom. We have 3 kids (12, 12, and 9), one of whom is afraid of the water- our guide was excellent in making sure he felt safe and had fun, while also creating an exciting experience for the other more adventurous kids! The lunch was also delicious with homemade bread for our custom sandwiches. The canyon was also very scenic."
