Your Denali rafting adventure will traverse the eastern boundary of Denali National Park. The whitewater on the Nenana River offers two sections, a Class II scenic mild-water raft trip or a Class III/IV whitewater raft trip. We offer both Paddle Raft and Oar Raft options in a spectacular Alaska mountain setting and the best whitewater rafting at Denali National Park.

On a oar raft option you just hang on for an exciting ride as your guide rows. If you desire a more hands-on adventure, with a paddle raft option everyone paddles as your raft captain yells paddling commands to get you through the rapids.

The descriptions and photos should help you and your family or group decide "Mild or Wild" and "Paddle or Oar" for a fantastic Denali rafting adventure.

We provide every whitewater guest with the comfort and confidence of state-of-the-art drysuits. Glacial cold waters are unforgiving but with the proper outfitting you can make a splash and have fun in the water. Our prices are competitive but our suits are priceless - we think you are worth it!
