Event Overview

Experience the thrill of white water rafting as you and your friends raft a 1/2 mile continuous whitewater stretch of the river.

After a short drive from Chicago you join our rafting guides at the river. Laugh, shout and have the time of your life as you repeat your thrill ride over and over again. Through the years over 200,000 rafters have experienced the excitement on this special 1/2 mile section of the river. This Waterway draws Olympic winners and National Champions. It is an excellent introduction to whitewater rafting. Whether you come alone or in a group, you can expect to have a great time! After the trip we will stop for dinner and drinks.
