Each year, more people return to RiverRun to experience the incredible thrill of whitewater rafting on the Ottawa River. What does RiverRun offer that makes guests want to raft with us over and over again each year?

You can customize your adventure
RiverRun is the only outfitter that allows you to customize your adventure to the thrill level that¹s best for you. Choose between our traditional 12-passenger rafts and our exclusive 6-passenger sport rafts - on any trip.

Best location on the Ottawa River
Start and end your rafting adventure at our beautiful 165-acre resort - located just below the last major set of rapids.
No bus rides or boat tows back to your dry clothes.
The hot showers, tub, sauna and our welcoming pavillion is just a short walk away.

Beautiful resort property
RiverRun offers a unique place to get away from the crowds and take in some sunshine and scenery. Our private beach and scenic lookout with views of the Canadian wilderness and the Ottawa River are spectacular. Five beautiful campgrounds, RV hook-ups and a wide range of accommodation options make RiverRun a favorite for individuals, families and groups of all sizes.

The larger traditional boats (image to the right) seat 12 guests and are designed for the beginner to intermediate rafter.

These boats are ideal for newbies on the river and families with young children and teenagers. The ride is stable with extra cross-tubes for protection.

We request that all rafters meet our specified age and weight restrictions. Full-day rafters must be 12 years of age or older and weigh at least 90 pounds. Half-day family trip rafters must be 7 years of age or older and weigh at least 50 pounds.

There is no maximum age. We have had very youthful guests in their late 80's.

For the in-your-face, up your nose,
"now I know what being laundry feels like" ride, we exclusively offer our sport boat programs. Seating 4-6 guests, these boats plus the aggressive program we have created around them, ensure a whitewater experience second to none. These boats are extremely lightweight and maneuverable.

Professional river guides
Our river guides are trained and certified professionals. They come from all over the globe to spend a summer on one of North America¹s premier paddle sports rivers. RiverRun guides are enthusiastic about the Ottawa River and enjoy sharing it with our guests.

28 years of drenching whitewater fun
We have received many warm testimonials over the past 28 years. As each rafting season comes along we often greet our guests with a smile and say,
