What's this trip about?

    The Owyhee River in Idaho and Oregon is one of the most spectacular desert rivers in the United States. A tributary of the Snake River, the Owyhee begins in Nevada and flows north and west through Idaho and Oregon before the 200-mile long river's terminus into the Snake. The Owyhee travels through sparse country and its remote canyon scenery is a favorite destination for white water rafting connoisseurs. Launches on the Owyhee River are strictly controlled and more than half of the river is designated Wild & Scenic by Congress for its incredible diversity of scenery, wildlife and plants. Considered the "Sistine Chapel" of western canyon lands, the Owyhee River in Idaho and Oregon is one of the best kept whitewater rafting secrets.

5 days.  50 miles.

This is the most approachable section of the Owyhee as the rapids are easy to moderate in nature and we are able to use our larger 16' rafts and run more of a "normal" rafting trip with the usual amenities that make for very comfortable and cushy camping. Our put-in i...

The Middle Owyhee River Rafting Trips

4 days. 38 miles.

Best-suited for very experienced rafters due to the remoteness and severity of the whitewater, we use extra caution and conservative judgement in running the rapids. Our put-in is at the Three Forks launch site with our take-out near Rome. During the trip we stop to s...
