Overview

Join the fun on the Athabasca River for a unique perspective of Jasper National Park. Our 2-3 hour round trip passes through many small sets of rapids and calm stretches, which allows your National Park licensed guide to point out the natural and human history of Jasper. This float trip is safe for the whole family, from toddlers and grandparents to swimmers and non-swimmers alike. Rivers are rated on a scale of one to six. Class 1 is considered to be calm moving water while a class 6 would be equivalent to Niagara Falls. The section of the Athabasca River that this tour rafts on is rated a Class 2; meaning that there are some sections with rapids, which may get your backside wet.

Meeting points

Meet 15 minutes prior to departure at the Two Brothers Totem Pole Directly beside the Jasper Train Station, across from the Historical Information Centre building

End point

This activity ends back at the meeting point.

Itinerary

Great Fun & Felt Safe

Published on Nov, 2024

We had a great time and the crew were so professional, so felt very safe … thoroughly fun and enjoyable

Smoked out!

Published on Jul, 2024

We were looking forward to this. We missed due to being evacuated because of the forest fires. Rated based on how good we were expecting it to be!

Great trip, Court was amazing, he took us through the (tame) rapids , highly recommend

Published on Jul, 2024

A great trip for a couple of hours. Very organised and professional. On the Athabasca River, great commentary from Court.

Get ready to be splashed!

Published on Jul, 2024

Very nice experience. The team was very professional and made everyone feel comfortable. The views on the route are breathtaking. A must do if you have a few hours to spare during your trip.

Refreshing and Scenic Raft Ride Along the Athabasca River

Published on Jul, 2024

This was a wonderful way to enjoy Athabasca river. We had a wonderful guide Zach from Adelaide, Australia. He not only navigated the raft but also kept us entertained throughout the 1 hour trip down the river. His sense of humor was just amazing- we were laughing throughout the trip. This is great for families- Zach ensured all of us got splashed with "refreshing" glacial waters of Athabasca river. A very memorable trip indeed!
