• July 14-16 Umpqua River Junior Guides

    Set along the legendary Highway of Waterfalls, the stunning North Umpqua River winds through one of Oregon’s most breathtaking landscapes. Each day, kids will raft carefully selected Class II and III sections — building skills, confidence, and river savvy — before returning each evening to our Forest Service group campsite to reconnect with family beneath the trees.But the adventure doesn’t stop at the river’s edge. Just minutes away, families can explore iconic waterfall hikes, including the 120-foot cascade at Toketee Falls, soak in the mineral waters of Umpqua Hot Springs, or take a day trip to the awe-inspiring beauty of Crater Lake National Park. The area also offers world-class fly fishing, an 80-mile riverside trail system, and stand-up paddle-boarding on nearby Lemolo Lake. This registration enrolls one child in rafting; there is an additional fee for each family member's overnight campsite and shared meals.
  • Complete one registration form per each child.
