Oregon Deschutes River 4-Day Private Adventure Trip

A Deschutes trip is the best overnight family rafting trip in the Pacific Northwest. An overnight rafting trip on the Deschutes River offers rapids, fishing opportunities, family fun, hiking, swimming, delicious meals, star gazing, adventure, and more. Whitewater river rafting is always in-season on the Deschutes River because of several upriver dams and the unique, porous nature of the surrounding bedrock. However, the best time to take a trip on the Deschutes River is between the beginning of April and the end of September.

Four days on the Deschutes River allows for a wonderful blend of leisure and adventure. There’s time for our favorite river and camp activities without compromising on the calmer moments that make a river trip so special. Sit by the water’s edge and enjoy your favorite book, take a siesta in a hammock under the shade trees, and enjoy your morning coffee while the kids receive a lesson on rigging the boats. The more time you have to disconnect from your regular day-to-day life, the more you’ll fall into the magical routine of life on the river.

An overnight river rafting trip with Orion Expeditions includes all meals from lunch on the very first day through lunch on the last day, professional guides, camping gear (with the exception of sleeping bags), a courtesy shuttle arranged at the river, and all necessary river gear. When you are not challenging the whitewater rapids in a paddle raft, you can hike, fish, swim, float the rapids in your lifejacket, or just relax in camp --- sipping your favorite beverage, contemplating the high desert scenery while reading a book.
