Take the Plunge With Hydra River Guides
Rushing water, gorgeous scenery and unforgettable memories waiting to be discovered: this is the Kicking Horse River. Located in Golden, BC, just 75 minutes away from Banff, Alberta, the Kicking Horse is the perfect spot for couples looking to add an element of adrenaline to their big day.
With over 30 years spent guiding rafters down the rapids, you can trust our guides to show you a safe, and fun time on the water!
Discover Our Ultra-Exclusive River Base
One of the most important features (besides our wonderful crew and years of experience) that helps set Hydra apart is our ultra-exclusive River Base. Featuring 6 acres of private land right on the riverbank, our base is located right on the banks of the Kicking Horse and includes hot showers, flush toilets, change rooms, volleyball courts and more!
No Better Way to Experience The Kicking Horse
Hydra offers multiple trips down the Kicking Horse that are suitable for rafters of all ages and levels. Two of our most popular options include:
The Kicking Horse Classic
Start your journey right from the calm waters at the shores of our River Base, and then enjoy a relaxing float along the upper portion of the river while your guides highlight famous sections and point out any wildlife visitors along the banks. Then, make your way in to the mighty waters of the middle section and finally enjoy the thrill of class 4 rapids before finishing up with a delicious BBQ lunch back at the base.
The Last Waltz
Looking for a shorter expedition to accommodate your bachelor/bachelorette plans? The Last Waltz treats you to the same on the water thrills as the Kicking Horse Classic, but starts later in the day and skips lunch, allowing for a speedy 2 hr trip that’s perfect for celebrating.
Group Rates
Hydra makes it easy to take the plunge with your nearest and dearest. We specialize in packages for stag or stagettes, offering the bride or groom a FREE trip, and a 10% discount for parties of 8 or more.
