Athabasca River
Class 2
The Athabasca River originates 100km south of Jasper from the glaciers of the Columbia Icefield. The river was used extensively by fur traders between 1810 and 1860 and has been designated a Canadian Heritage River. We raft two different sections of this river. Both sections provide exceptional views of the Rocky Mountains and contain some lively white water rapids.
A 2 hour fun trip, great family run suitable for all ages. Also a great opportunity for wildlife viewing.
