CURRENT ADVENTURES KAYAKING & OREGON RIVER EXPERIENCES TRIPS

Current Adventures Kayak School and Trips is a professional kayak school specializing in quality personal and group instruction in virtually all aspects of kayaking. We are a team of folks whose lifestyle involves us deeply in paddling. Our goal is to help others master the art and skill of kayaking.

Our experienced kayak instructors and raft guides have been sharing the rivers of Oregon together with up and coming whitewater paddlers for 15 years or more, and will certainly help you get the most from your kayaking adventure!

These special trips have full raft support provided by Oregon River Experiences and our own experienced kayak instructor/guides along on these trips to make it the very best experience for everyone.

Bring family or friends on the rafts and share the spirit of this wilderness river while you surf and explore from the seat of your kayak, fulfilling your dreams and fantasies and planning for whitewater rivers yet to paddle.

OWYHEE RIVER 5 DAY

The Owyhee River country has been called Oregon’s Grand Canyon for good reason. Owyhee river paddlers discover multicolored spires, dramatic canyons and sculpted grottoes: scenery that is a match for the better-known canyons of the American southwest.

The scenery is superb, but the Owyhee has more to offer as well.

  • Soak in natural hot springs while watching a desert sunset fade on dramatic canyon walls.
  • Hike through a fairyland of colorful, eroded rock pinnacles at Chalk Basin.
  • View petroglyphs carved into riverside rocks thousands of years ago by the Owyhee region’s early inhabitants.
  • Challenge the Owyhee’s lively rapids, including Whistling Bird, Squeeze, and Montgomery, then relax between rapids while scanning the shore and sky for bighorn sheep, antelope, and the over 100 species of birds that make their home here.

All this and more is why the Owyhee is the river our guides feel most privileged to share with you. Join us for a true wilderness adventure you will always remember.
