Yukon River Rafting Day Trips

One Day Upper Tatshenshini Rafting

The perfect family trip (our youngest guest was 6 and the oldest 87).
Note: Grizzlies, bald eagle and spawning salmon are a common sight.

Our one day trips on the upper canyon of the Tatshenshini River are run from June through to late August. This is an extremely exciting paddle trip (grade II to IV) and is very popular with both locals and visitors. The upper Tatshenshini is located on the Haines Road, a 2.5 - 3 hour ride from Whitehorse - an extremely scenic drive in itself. The cost of the trip is $125 plus GST per person, which includes lunch plus all necessary padding equipment.

Rafting on the Upper TatshenshiniThe trip can be done in one day, leaving Whitehorse by 7:45 a.m. and returning to Whitehorse by approximately 7:30 p.m. We do not provide transportation to the river, but do provide a courtesy shuttle from the end of the trip back to your vehicle at the put-in. Vehicle rentals and a map to the river location can be arranged in Whitehorse.

We provide wet suits, wet suit booties, helmets, lunch, paddling jackets and lifevests. The customer is expected to wear wool socks and have something that is not cotton to wear on their upper body (i.e. wool sweater, polypro or fleece top).

$125 per person*

We have been operating rafting trips on the Tatshenshini River since 1983. Our guides are professionals trained in the latest river rescue techniques as well as being certified in wilderness first aid.

Tutshi River

One of the best whitewater day trip in the world!

You will see some incredible scenery and maybe even surprise some wildlife but in the end most of what you will remember is the most incredible whitewater.

The Tutshi is a small, technical river located on the scenic Skagway Road. The trip starts with a series of small lakes leading to the headwaters of the river. The gentle river quickly disappears, as does the horizon line and you enter the heart of the canyon. The Tutshi canyon is fast, generally grade III, with a grade IV drop known as the Nozzle, which we will scout. Below the canyon we will paddle a section known as "The Drops", which is a series of grade IV and V rapids, with flat pools at the bottom.

The Tutshi is one exciting ride, but it is not for everybody. It is hard to stop in the canyon, and "The Drops" are steep. There will be an option to walk all "The Drops" if you feel uncomfortable rafting them.
