Gentle Whitewater Float on the Salmon River

About this activity

You will journey down the Salmon river for 7 miles and enjoy a delicious healthy riverside lunch at the end of your float. We run a section of the salmon river where the river begins to cut into the frank church river of no return wilderness. You will learn about the history of the people that once inhabited the canyon as well as those that traveled through early on. A perfect blend of splashy class I and II rapids will keep you entertained and cooled off on those hot summer days.
