About This Trip

Starting in the "Whitewater Capital" of Riggins, Idaho you will experience a thrill-filled and action-packed 10-mile float. This half-day trip features a variety of class 3 and 4 whitewater rapids including Time Zone, Chair, Traps, Fiddle Creek, and more. Along with the excitement of the whitewater you can also enjoy time swimming and enjoying the beautiful Salmon River.

Great for families, this trip offers a perfect mix of excitement, adventure, and relaxation for all ages to enjoy.

This float takes approximately 3 hours depending on the river flow. Plan to meet at the Lucille Recreation Site (boat ramp) parking lot at either 9 am or 1:30 pm mountain time (8 am or 12:30 pm PST) depending on the time you book (please note the time difference, especially if you are coming from pacific time). From there you will board the Outdoor Voyagers shuttle and be taken to Riggins where your trip will launch. There you will meet your river guides and after a safety briefing, you'll push off.

Located just 46 miles from McCall, this whitewater rafting trip is the perfect addition to your family's Idaho summer vacation. A highlight for people searching for Riggins rafting, Salmon River day trips, or things to do near McCall.
