Scenic Float-Trip on the Athabasca River in Canada

Excursion Overview

Enjoy the remarkable scenery of the Athabasca Valley, near Jasper, and learn about the festinating history of this designated Canadian Heritage River on this delightful float trip. Using specially designed oar-powered rafts, your guide will steer you along the same route that fur traders would have used two centuries ago. You will navigate several easy sets of rapids and gently float along the calm stretches in between, keeping an eye for wildlife along the banks – elk, mountain sheep and deer are frequently seen, and sometime bears and coyotes are also spotted. This is a relaxing trip designed for the whole family, and takes about two and a half hours from start to finish.

Our recent trip to Canada was an adventure of a lifetime and our experience was enhanced by the faultless planning by Paul Turner. His thorough organisation and assistance throughout made our time away so relaxed and enjoyable and we are truly grateful.

First class. This was the 2nd time I’ve used Holiday Architects - they are absolutely excellent. We have just returned from a perfect trip to Canada to travel and visit friends which Paul Turner brought together excellently.
