Sports Camps in Gardiner, MT

Start the trip on the boundary of America’s first National Park! Spend the morning paddling the “Gardiner Town Stretch” and float further downstream into beautiful Paradise Valley. Before entering paradise, you will experience class I-III splashy rapids, beautiful scenery and amazing swimming holes. Halfway through your adventure, our fun loving guides will stop and serve you lunch sourced from a locally owned cafe. After lunch your afternoon will be well spent paddling through the scenic and rapid Yankee Jim Canyon – the most beautiful section of the Yellowstone River! (and most fun, in our opinion)

Our Half Day Classic Raft trip begins at the northern border of Yellowstone National Park, right where the Gardiner River converges with the mighty Yellowstone River. This trip is fun for the whole family as we run Class 1-3 (water level dependent, call our office to ask about current river conditions) and take children as young as 6! Ride the waves at Bridge Waves, Man Eater, Loonie's and Boonie's Revenge, Queen of the Waters, and the KING! Take in the breathtaking view of Devil’s Slide. Float through some flat water stretches that are great for swimming and relaxing. This trip is great for first time rafters or family groups with wide age and ability ranges. This trip is 8 miles on the river, roughly 1-1.5 hours of on the water fun depending on water levels (CFS), and roughly 2.5-3 hours door-to-door. This includes gear up, gear down, and a short drive to and from the river, no more than 15 minutes total in the bus, round trip!
