Conquer the Kicking Horse River
Located in Yoho National Park, the Kicking Horse River is famous for its incredible class 1-4 rapids. Some of the river’s most famous bits are the portage and shotgun stretches. These sections were named following a 1970 landslide that allowed paddlers to test their might on the rapids rather than travel (portage) around them. This stretch of rapids is class 4 and the biggest on the river! Hydra River Guide’s Kicking Horse Classic adventure runs right through these awesome rapids. It is perfect for beginner and experienced rafters alike. As a must-visit destination for rafters, kayakers, and thrill-seekers of all levels, the Kicking Horse is an incredible experience. This river is a natural playground like no other, from stunning views of the Rocky Mountains to adventure that will satisfy your inner adrenaline junkie.
