1.Main Salmon River Rafting
The Main Salmon River is one of the classic Idaho river rafting trips and one of the best-kept secrets of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. The Main Salmon is nearly an 80-mile long stretch that is floated in six days. It is known for its beauty, beaches, pictographs, and whitewater that is fun for all ages and abilities.
2. Middle Fork Salmon River Rafting
The Middle Fork of the Salmon lies in the heart of the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness. It's a wildly beautiful journey down one of North America’s most remote river canyons. Beginning from the Sawtooth Mountains, the Middle Fork drops 3,000 feet over 100 miles and features dozens of class 3 rapids. Big Horn Sheep, Bald Eagles, Osprey, and Marmots are commonly seen while floating downriver. Idaho River Adventures is your premier outfitter for Middle Fork Salmon River rafting. We will always proudly call it home.
3. Lower Salmon River Rafting
The Lower Salmon River is home to one of the best river trips in North America. If you want beautiful beaches and big waves in a western river canyon, this is the trip for you. It’s the essence of river rafting Idaho. The Salmon River Canyons are a different kind of Idaho river rafting experience than the Middle Fork of the Salmon. It’s lower in elevation, which means the water is warmer. The weather is usually warmer as well. Swimming and napping on the beach are encouraged. Lower Salmon River rafting trips are usually shorter and cost less than other Salmon River trips, which means they are great for families or anyone who wants a relaxing introduction to raft trips.
