Our Nith River Raft Experience is Southern Ontario's Best Whitewater Rafting!

Early Spring's high flow rates on the Nith River by Paris produce exciting whitewater rafting with easy-to-moderate Class I & II rapids.  It's a fun mild whitewater rafting adventure for groups, friends & families.

Our trip starts on the calm upper Nith, winding through picturesque forests teaming with wildlife. Relax and enjoy the scenery as you learn to help paddle the raft with your guide. Traveling down river the elevation drops and the river's speed picks up, helping you get used to smaller rapids. After a on-shore lunch and campfire, paddle by Devil’s Cove and get ready to tackle a 3 km section of rolling waves & rapids best described as a “flume ride”.

While not class IV or V rapids of the Ottawa River, our class I to III rapids are lots of fun and we don't have the rock hazards of Canadian Shield rivers.  The gravel bottomed Nith's rapids are generated by high flows from Spring runoff and rain plus a great 20 ft/mile elevation drop. You won't get thrown out of the raft but you'll have lots of fun.

A great whitewater introduction only available in the Early Spring late March through April. By May the Nith's flow rates becomes too low for whitewater rafting.

Dates Available: Late March & April every Saturday & Sunday. Other days available on demand for groups of 4 or more.
