Whitewater Rafting in the Columbia Gorge
June 12-14th, 2026
$980-$995 per person
Join us in The Gorge for a weekend of white water rafting, lava tubes, wine tasting, early summer farm meals, cave spelunking and relaxing in the Columbia Gorge. We will be staying at the historic Lyle Hotel for our two-night trip and will enjoy a 4 hour rafting experience with our experienced and certified guides.
This White Salmon River rafting trip has attracted whitewater enthusiasts for generations and is perfect for both beginners and advanced rafters.
A river-wide ledge, Husum Falls has gained a reputation as one of the tallest commercially raftable waterfalls in the country. Depending upon water levels, your White Salmon raft trip will culminate with a heart-pumping vertical plunge. If this sounds like more excitement than you’re interested in, don’t worry, Husum Falls is optional. If you’re more interested in watching the action than being part of it, you are always welcome to walk around Husum Falls and watch from the river banks.
Rafting isn’t the only exciting thing to experience on our trip. We will have an optional pre-raft morning activity of hiking and cave exploration as well as wine tasting the following day.

The White Salmon River is a National Wild and Scenic River that begins on the glaciers of Mt Adams and flows into the Columbia River. You'll love it for the great whitewater, the beautiful forested canyon, and the unique Husum Falls.
Husum Falls is the largest commercially run waterfall in the United States and a fun test for kayakers and rafters.
