Central Oregon’s
Deschutes River is one of the most popular Oregon whitewater rafting venues, and for good reason. Trout Creek, White Horse, Buckskin Mary, Wapinitia,
Boxcar, Oak Springs and other colorfully named rapids stud the river’s course amidst the breathtaking scenery of the Deschutes River Canyon.
HDRO offers a variety of guided rafting trips on the Deschutes River to suit your needs, ranging from relaxing family outings to high-adrenaline
whitewater adventures. We provide wet suits & splash jackets for these trips.
Equipment
Our rafts are new, state-of-the-art and equipped with all the essential river accessories that are necessary for a safe and successful trip, including life-jackets, paddles, throw ropes, and helmets upon request, etc. In addition, we provide all the necessary permits and insurance before each trip.
Gourmet Deli & Barbecue Lunches
Rafting the river
takes a lot of energy, that’s why our guides prepare all your meals for the full day and multi-day trips (included in the price) and take care of all the
clean-up afterward.
We provide our gourmet Deli Lunches and Back Country Barbecue Lunches. When you’re having the time of your life, a great lunch provides the perfect
mid-adventure break with your companions and fellow rafters.
Inflatable Kayaks
We offer inflatable kayaks for our customers who want the freedom and flexibility of a kayak trip. Follow (or lead) your rafting group and enjoy the river at your own pace. Kayaks are a great idea for those adventurous folks looking to brave the rapids on their own! Kayaks give you the freedom and room you need to enjoy the high-desert scenery.

This 3 or 4 hour trip, depending if you go in the morning or afternoon, is a great experience for the novice, as well as rafters who desire a high desert adventure. This is our most popular trip. Because this trip is shorter, lunch is not included. We run this trip twice a day on all 7 days of the week. The AM trip leaves our office @9:30 am, and the PM trip leaves our office @2:00 pm. The PM trip is about an hour longer because we now include a side hike up to the White River rock slides. That is NOT included in the morning trip. Check-in for all trips is 30 minutes prior to the leave time.
Available on the Deschutes River only.
Afternoon Trip: $70.00 (per person)
