Why choose Alpine? As one of the oldest alpine river rafting operators, we have been able to secure the best put-ins and take-outs to access the river. This includes our put-in for our Gentle Family Rafting & Full Day Rafting Tours. Exclusive access to whitewater rafting is what we have for you when you raft with Alpine. If you’re planning on spending a day on the Kicking Horse, it’s well worth joining us and experiencing Yoho National Park in a way only Alpine guests get to do. This 4 km section of river also boasts 3 small rapids that are safe and thrilling for small children! The kids will love it. In addition, if we are going to see any wildlife throughout the day, it will generally be within Yoho National Park.
