Some of Alpine Rafting’s Kicking Horse River Trip include a bonus 4 kilometre stretch of river. This signature section of the River is offered by Alpine Rafting. We are the only British Columbia based operator that is permitted to do so. A Cree exclamation of awe, Yoho applies perfectly to this park’s big peaks, expansive glaciers, and impressive waterfalls. Add Yoho’s famous fossils and it’s easy to see why this park in the Canadian Rockies is part of a UNESCO World Heritage site. Although many of its highlights are accessible by road, Yoho isa hiker’s dream and a railway buff’s delight. But, did you know that Yoho National Park also boasts some of the most iconic Canadian Rockies Whitewater Rafting?
