About this experience
White water rafting on the Rouge River, rated one of the top ten rivers in North America for rafting!
This tour has been one of Quebec's most popular white water rafting trips for more than a quarter century. It's an unbeatable one-day rafting adventure. The river rapids come up fast and furious in a cascade of ledges, drops and waves that are sure to thrill veterans and novices alike.
The rafting season usually opens in the Harrington Canyon when the spring flood is at its peak. During summer, we raft the challenging Seven Sisters that offer impressive continuous rapids. Our trips descend the best stretches of the river based on the current water levels.

Detailed itinerary
1
Your activity begins when you are picked up at Tremblant resort and brought by school bus to the rafting basecamp (approx 1 hour drive) where you will meet our guide. After signing in at the reception, you will be transported by bus to the starting point on the river.
You'll start with a safety briefing and then get into your boat, an inflatable raft that can accommodate 6 to 10 people. Your professional guide will practice basic rafting manoeuvres with you. Before each rapid, we will explain what to do and how to react. One of the Rouge River’s many advantages is having calm pools after each rapid, making the descent fun and diversified.
You will do two descents of the river (16 km or approx 4 hours of rafting) and in between have a riverside picnic lunch where you will have time to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the river but also its many sandy beaches. Between rapids, there are golden beaches and great places for bodysurfing and floating in the current.
Afterwards, you will return to basecamp where you can enjoy some "après-rafting" fun in the 2 large hot tubs and the pool. Our basecamp facilities also include showers and lockers and a snack bar.
You will end your day with a delicious steak or salmon dinner and a multi-media presentation of your day of rafting!
Return transport gets you back to Tremblant Resort at approximately 19h30.
