Your
day Family Rafting starts at the OWL Resort with a Trip
Leader briefing that reviews the day. You collect your helmet,
lifejacket and paddle, and then jump on the bus for a short shuttle to
the river put-in. Here you meet your guide who checks your equipment and
then gives on-water instructions that teach you how to hold on and what
to expect. Once everyone has received a their safety briefing, we head
down to “Black Chute”, our first rapid of the day.
Halfway through your day, we stop
for a juice break to give us the energy to challenge the second half of
the Ottawa River. At lower water there are sandy beaches for the kids to
play on!
To get into the swim of things, we
will body surf through gentle rolling waves and take a spin in the
river’s natural Jacuzzi. This is a highlight of everytrip before we have
an enjoyable float across Muskrat Lake. After the last rapid, we meet
our pontoon boats for a return BBQ cruise across the lake to the OWL
Resort.
While you are returning to base, our
Video Kayaker that followed our whole trip zooms ahead to edit a video
of the days adventure. This will be ready for the après rafting
presentation hosted by your guide and is available on DVD or VHS.
