North Umpqua River Rafting

Tucked near the base of Crater Lake, the North Umpqua River certainly has a lot to offer when it comes to whitewater action.  With multiple options for a variety of runs, from consistent class II+ rapids to spaced out bigger class III+ rapids, we think the North Umpqua river is some of the finest whitewater in the state.

With day trips offered on the upper section you will paddle your way through the waves and twisting turns on rapids like Weird Wier, Eiffle Tower and Pinball.  Overnight options include 2-3 day trips that allow you to experience the lower portion of the river and give time to practice your hand on some of the world famous fly fishing holes.

With sunny warm weather, world famous fly fishing, mountain biking, hiking trails and hot springs nearby the Umpqua is worth a visit just for itself.

  • Variety of rapids makes for an exciting ride, especially in the spring.
  • Multitude of options for trip lengths and river sections.
  • Scenic river canyon with lots of other activities to do and close to Crater Lake National Park.
