The Rogue River Nugget Falls half-day rafting trip is a perfect quick river adventure for any group or family in the Southern Oregon area. Popular with those just driving through or seeing plays in Ashland as the trip is only minutes from the freeway and fits into a quick whitewater filled half-day. This trip mixes scenery, local history/culture, moderate whitewater, a lesson on raft surfing and ends with two large class IV cascades sure to leave everyone with their adrenaline pumping. All of this combines to create a highly memorable river adventure.
On this trip down the Rogue River rafters will float through the beautiful Rogue Valley and past lands inhabited for millennia by native tribes. After a brief orientation at the put-in rafters have plenty of time to build the team skills in their raft as the group enjoys smaller whitewater before building into the biggest class IV rapids towards the end.
About an hour in the group will arrive at Lineman rapids where each rafting team will try to surf their raft in the small waves. After some fun, “hanging ten” each boat will head towards Nugget Falls, the first class IV cascade of whitewater. This quick plunge ends with a BIG wave and lots of fun.
After Nugget Falls the group will keep floating towards the longer and more complicated collection of drops at Ti’lomikh Falls. After this final class IV the takeout is just around the corner.
