ROGUE RIVER WILDERNESS LODGE TRIPS |
|
Rogue Wilderness Adventures offers
whitewater rafting trips on Oregon's Rogue River. Below you will find
information on the various lodge trips we offer in the Wild and Scenic section
of the river.
Wild and Scenic River Section Trips -
Multi-Day Lodge Trips |
|
 The
canyons charm lies in its thrilling whitewater
stretches, alternated with mild riffles, placid
pools, and narrow canyons edged by towering cliffs.
The old growth Douglas fir forest, mixed with
deciduous trees, creates a perfect river bank
habitat for the abundant wildlife of the Rogue
River Canyon. Otter, beaver, deer, Roosevelt elk,
black bear, cougars, osprey, bald eagles, mallards,
wood ducks, wild turkeys, and many others flourish
in the wilderness river canyon.
Oar rafts, paddle rafts, and inflatable kayaks
are all available on our Wild Section Trips. The
whitewater on the Wild Section is rated class
III - IV in the canyon with two world famous Class
IV+ rapids: Blossom Bar Rapid and Mule Creek Canyon.
Duration of the trips are from two to four days
and cover nearly 40 miles by river.

2-Day, 3-Day
and 4-Day Wilderness Lodge Trips |
|
 If you prefer the accouterments of
civilization, historic wilderness lodging is available. Accessible only by
river, these rustic lodges provide a wilderness experience that is quaintly
civilized and speaks of the history of time gone by. After a day on the river,
you can enjoy a hot shower, dine on a delicious family-style meal, and drift
off to sleep in a comfortable bed. Our three day trip is our recommended lodge
trip, allowing time for relaxation and exploration of side canyons and scenic
hikes. There is even time for bank fishing for the famous Salmon and Steelhead
of the Rogue River.
 If you are limited in time, Rogue Wilderness offers a two day
lodge trip through the Rogue River Canyon. You will travel the same distance as
our longer trips, but you will go faster with little opportunity for
exploration. The first day, approximately 26 river miles will be covered.
Navigating a multitude of class III rapids and the two world famous class 4+
rapids makes this an exciting and challenging experience. Lodging is provided
at one of the historic river canyon lodges.
Trips begin at 8:00am. The
"Wild & Scenic" portion of the Rogue River is a "permitted" entry system
regulated by the bureau of Land Management and United States Forest Service.
Due to the limited entry system and the popularity of these trips,
early reservations are strongly
recommended.
Labor Day
Weekend Wine Maker Trip |
 Our featured winery for 2007 is Walla Walla Vintners
from Washington State. Please join winemaker Myles Anderson on a three day
lodge trip down the Wild and Scenic Rogue River Canyon. Each afternoon when we
arrive at our lodges, you’ll get the opportunity to sample
Walla Walla Vintner wines and hear from the winemaker himself. Our staff will
prepare meals to complement the wines and Myles will be discussing the art of
winemaking throughout the weekend. Space is limited to only 20 guests. Reserve
your spot today. Launch date is September 1st, off the river on September
3rd.

3-Day and 4-Day
Camping and Wilderness Lodge Trips |
|
 Our camp/lodge trips are our most popular offering, combining the
best of both worlds: camping and wilderness lodging. On a combination trip,
you'll spend one or two nights in camp followed by one night at a famous
wilderness lodge. Rogue Wilderness Adventures believes this is our best overall
offering. There is a very special bonding that is experienced on camping trips,
and because of the logistical placement of the lodges, we prefer to camp the
first two night, dividing the trip equally between the days.
Trips
begin at 8:00am. The "Wild and Scenic" portion of the Rogue River is a
"permitted" entry system regulated by the bureau of Land Management and United
States Forest Service. Due to the limited entry system and the popularity of
these trips, early reservations are
strongly recommended.
