Make the Most Out Of Your Trip to Banff, Alberta

Make the Most Out Of Your Trip to Banff, Alberta

Banff, Alberta, is nestled at the base of the famous Canadian Rockies, surrounded by blue skylines interrupted by the peaks of frosted mountaintops. Who wouldn’t want to see Banff for themselves? Besides the tourist-heavy winter season, Banff also has plenty to offer in the summertime. If you’re planning on heading over this summer, make sure you get the most out of your trip by taming the Kicking Horse River! Find out more about white water rafting in the most beautiful place on earth below.

Achieve Your Bucket List in Banff

The mountains in Banff are its biggest draw, and you can be one of those who get the views at the top as well as the thrills at the bottom. Hiking is a common pastime in Banff, but many people forget about capitalizing on the rushing waves at the mountain’s base. This summer, you can experience the views of the Rockies at Hydra River Guides! Our base is encased by beautiful mountains that you’ll be able to admire while you are white water rafting.

An adrenaline junkie’s favourite pastime, white water rafting is at the top of the bucket list for many people. This adventure alone is amazing, but white water rafting in Banff elevates your experience to a new level. With the chance to see native Canadian wildlife on your trip, you’ll be making memories to cherish forever in one of the most stunning places to do it.

Conquer the rapids

The Family Whitewater

Perfect for the little adventurers, bring your family to enjoy the class 1-3 waves together on the Family Whitewater trip. Our funny, friendly guides will give you commentary on the nearby wildlife and coach you through the rapids. Who knows—maybe you’ll take part in a rival raft water fight! Suitable for kids ages 8+ and who weigh over 50 lbs. We will provide the necessary equipment and instructions: all you need is a swimsuit, towel, and a good attitude.

Got little ones over 12? Try the Kicking Horse Classic.

Kicking Horse Classic

Even first-time white water rafters love this trip! The Kicking Horse Classic gives you extra time on the water compared to the Family Whitewater, and you and your group will brave slightly more intense rapids. Still, this trip is perfect for people who are new to rafting but want to experience a full-day trip. The Kicking Horse Classic is by far our most popular ride. Great for kids ages 12+ and who weigh over 90 lbs.

The Last Waltz

The final trip of the day, the Last Waltz, gives you and your group time to enjoy the other things that Banff, AB, has to offer before ending your day with a splash! Like the Classic, most riders will get wet to some extent! Be ready for thrilling waves, fun banter, and an adventure to remember.
