Experience the thrill of whitewater rafting on the Lowe River through Keystone Canyon. Enjoy the views of the sheer rock walls of the canyon as you navigate the river.

 

EXPERIENCE:

Enjoy a thrilling rafting adventure in Valdez, Alaska. Navigate the Lowe River through Keystone Canyon, which is the only land route to the Alaskan interior. Take in the stunning scenery of the canyon as you raft through the rapids.

Meet your guide at the meeting point and receive a safety briefing and basic instruction. Then, head to the river and get outfitted with all the necessary equipment. Climb into the raft and start your adventure.

The initial Class I-II water offers an opportunity to get used to the raft and practice commands prior to entering the canyon. As the canyon narrows, the waves and rapids increase into big-water Class III. If the water is really moving, you’ll hear boulders turning on the riverbed.

On a short section of calm water, stop at Bridal Veil Falls, one of the many massive waterfalls adorning Keystone Canyon’s sheer rock walls. After the quick stop, it’s back in the raft to navigate the rest of this magnificent canyon.

Take out as the canyon opens and the river calms.
