WENATCHEE RIVER RAFTING
The Wenatchee River is one of the most popular rafting rivers in Washington State. The start of the season, April and May, provides big flows that create a Class III+ white water paradise with some of the biggest commercially rafted waves in Washington. Once the summer heats up flows drop down but don't worry there are still plenty of big rapids like Rock and Roll, Drunkards Drop, and Snowblind. Leavenworth rafting enthusiasts can count on a whitewater adventure in the spring and early summer and more family-friendly fun during the late summer months. With our high guide certification standards and prices starting at just $69 a person we have the best value, you’ll find. Book now and join Wildwater for some Wenatchee River rafting!
