Soft Adventure Rafting Package
Trip Overview
Our Soft Adventure Whitewater Rafting Package includes two full days of whitewater rafting for everyone. Your experienced and passionate guide controls the raft using oars from the rear of the raft. Soft Adventure trips run the more conservative lines of the river. Body surf and float, cliff jumping all possible, it’s up to the river! Beyond the last rapid, our signature Pontoon Boats, complete with a freshly prepared, grilled buffet and your change of clothes, await. Relax and reenergize while you cruise back to the OWL Resort via the historical route of the First Nations, the Voyageurs and the Log Drive, viewing the rugged beauty of the Canadian Shield. Once back at the resort your guides will show a video presentation where you can relive your day’s adventure.

Reviews
OWL Rafting does it right! We had a fabulous day with OWL Rafting. Our river guide, Pete, was amazing and made our adventure very memorable. We can’t stop talking about every rapid we conquered and the things we learned about the area and rafting in general. The pontoon boat ride and fantastic meal ended our daily perfectly.
An unforgettable family adventure My family and I had an absolutely amazing experience with Owl Rafting. You can sense the pride of ownership at this facility, and it's evident that this pride extends to their wonderful staff. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with warm smiles and genuine hospitality.Our guide, Chris, was knowledgeable, friendly and took extra precautions to ensure our kids felt safe and comfortable throughout the entire trip. The food, much of which was sourced from the gardens on site, was like having a home cooked meal.
The cabinas were cozy and well-appointed, with two single beds downstairs and two singles in a loft. Their proximity to the beach is ideal for parents wanting to keep an eye on older kids from the front porch. However, the thin walls mean you can clearly hear your neighbors.
We were next to a rowdy bachelor party on the first night, resulting in very little sleep. We explained the situation to Owl in the morning and they kindly moved us to the glamping tents, which, although less convenient, were cozier and provided much better sleep. If you're considering the cabinas, it's a good idea to book as a group to avoid the possibility of very loud neighbours.
Rating: 10/10 highly recommend! We will be returning for another trip.
Awsome time and will return again soon Had anawsome time the entire time we were at the resort. The rafting was bang on a GREAT TIME!!! A big shout out to our guide Angus who is very knowledgeable about the river and rafting. We felt very safe the entire ride down the river. I would also like to give a shout out to Luc and Pete the other guides that were on the river with us that day. They also made the trip fun and we felt safe with them there on the river with us as well. The resort is clean and the food is very good. The staff are awsome, friendly and smile a lot. There are a lot of activities you can do as well when you are not on the river rafting. I highly recommend Owl Rafting for anyone who is looking for some adventure and down time as well. I am already planning my next adventure with Owl Rafting for next year with more of my family this time!
