Trip Overview

OWL Rafting’s Soft Adventure Whitewater Rafting – Stay & Raft  is a 2 day package includes a fun whitewater rafting trip and an evening at the OWL waterfront resort playing and relaxing.

Whitewater Rafting

Experience the great Canadian river trip – this is a travel-path forged by First Nations, traversed by fur traders since the 1600’s and fostered by foresters at the turn of the last century. An introduction to whitewater is a full day natural roller coaster where you’ll paddle as a team – your experienced guide steers from the stern – all you have to do is listen for directions, join in and have fun. This soft adventure trip descends 8 km of beautiful scenery and tumbling whitewater, interspersed with quiet pools where you get to body surf and float in the friendly warm waters.

As the currents calm down, we transfer to the comfort of our signature Pontoon Boat to enjoy a freshly grilled meal. Relax and reenergize while you cruise back to the OWL Resort and take in the beauty of the Canadian Shield.  At the resort, a video presentation will let you relive your day’s adventure.

Resort

Play a round of frisbee golf, a game of beach volleyball, or try your luck at horseshoes.  We also boast a large floating swim dock right off shore, and a life size maze. Ice cream, snacks, cold drinks and ice are available for sale on site.
