Overview
Join us on an exciting white water rafting adventure! Three FULL days of water sports (rafting, kayaking and paddle boarding), and two exciting nights camping and partying under the stars! We will be exploring the Ottawa River, which borders both Ontario and Quebec. Learn to white water raft, kayak and paddleboard. Swim in the lake, dine with the group around the campfire at night, toast some marshmallows and relax.
You don’t need any rafting experience! This is a great Rafting Resort Package for the first timers. Raft in traditional 12 person rafts then enjoy all resort facilities, including basketball and volleyball playgrounds and party during a night at the bar with live band or DJ or just relax under the stars by campfire.
We will also explore Bon Echo Provincial Park. We will hike along the shore of Mazinaw Lake and relax on the sandy beach. There will be also time for swimming or kayaking (optional).
Meals served at the rafting resort
All meals are included (vegetarian options available). Breakfast every day is a bounty of fruit, cereals, pastries and tasty grill items. River lunch is one of those timeless meals that every river guide never tires of and misses well beyond the guiding years – Big Burgers, Oktoberfest Sausage, BBQ Chicken Breast and all the trimmings including fruit, dessert, soup, trail mix, cookies and lemonade, water, coffee and tea.
Dinners are New York Strip Steak, BBQ Chicken, Ribs, Chili to die for and more. There is a large salad bar nightly and at every meal, even on the river, is vegetarian fare.
Camping
If you have never camped and don’t have any camping experience, don’t worry. We will help you to pitch the tent. If don’t have any camping gear, you can rent or purchase a camping equipment from us. You won’t be sharing a tent, you will be alone in a tent unless you are travelling with a friend, couple or family.
If you are looking for one day canoeing trip, you can join Algonquin Park Canoe trip.
