The walk down into the canyon is a steep, winding path. You breathe deeply, and the air smells amazing. The wind blows softly.
​
You started at the base in Grande Cache, where you were quickly outfitted with everything — good gear, ready for the river. After a short ride, the bus stopped in a small forest clearing. You stepped out, and the canyon unfolded at your feet.
​
Now, you stand at the river's edge. The guides check everyone’s gear. After the safety talk, you feel well-prepped, but now it’s real. You get into the raft and push off into another world.
​
The raft moves swiftly down the river. It starts easy — you settle in, paddle dipping into water so clear you can see every stone. Then the canyon deepens.
The world narrows to just river and rock. The cliffs are so close, you can almost brush your fingers against the stone. Plants and trees grow impossibly out of crevices in sheer walls. Light, colour and water change around every corner — it’s a constant unveiling of incredible beauty.
​
​There's this feeling... the magic of an ancient, untouched river. Time moves differently here.
​
The rapids build — playful, friendly, and so much fun. You and your group become a team, responding to the guide’s commands, crashing through waves, skillfully paddling around rocks. It’s like nothing you’ve ever done before.
And suddenly, you're at the Sulphur Gates, where the two rivers meet. The canyon walls split open — the view is surreal. People rave about this place from the cliffs above, but from the river… it blows your mind.
As the paddling eases, you set your paddle down and drift into a wide valley surrounded by mountains. Maybe you start a water fight. Or maybe, you just float, as the river flows across the land the way it has for thousands of years.
You forgot life could be this simple.
The canyon isn’t just a place you visit. It’s a place you become part of — and carry with you long after you leave.
“This right here is a hidden gem… the amount of fun we had cannot be put into words. You couldn’t ask for a better set of people to take you down those rapids.”
