Community Whitewater Rafting: Santiam

Program Description:
Join Adventures Without Limits for a paddle on the Santiam River! Oregon is known for its snow-capped mountains and rocky coastlines but it is the rivers that connect these landscapes and provide a home for some of the most iconic wildlife in the Pacific Northwest. Grab a paddle and join our expert guides as we navigate class II-III rapids. This event is open to the public, inclusive, and accessible to people of all abilities. We specialize in creating a welcome space for diverse sets of needs.
