Description

Be sure to read the Special Notes further down this page for important requirements and restriction.

There's no better way to experience Denali than by rafting in Alaska's top whitewater rafting destination-Nenana River. After hearing safety instructions, gear up in a life jacket, neoprene booties and a one-piece dry suit specifically designed for whitewater. You'll be travelling in an oar-powered, self-bailing raft piloted by an experienced guide. No paddling necessary as your guide will do all the driving, so sit back and let the beauty of nature seep into your bones. You'll be rafting on a section of the Nenana River that is a prime habitat for moose, Dall sheep, caribou, and grizzly bear. Your guide will offer insights of the region's natural history and entertain you with interesting tales of local lore. The Class II and III rapids offer a beginner's level introduction to whitewater rafting and can be enjoyed by the entire family-this is one of the best ways to connect with nature and experience wild Alaska!

Special Notes:
