About

1st day: Spring Creek The tour starts at 10 am. Kayak on the crystal-clear Spring Creek, upstream from the Williamson River. These waters are famous for their quality trout fishery and consistently produce trophy fish. Spring Creek gushes dramatically out of a nearby spring and produces awesome colors in its pristine waters as it flows through the park. You will see the water coming up through the sands just below the surface among the unique Mare's Eggs, which grow in only a few spots in the world. We put you in at the day-use area behind the Collier Logging Museum, where we go upstream, then down, while we show you around.

2nd day: Wood River The pristine waters of the Wood River in Oregon start flowing from springs, which are fed by underground waters originating below Crater Lake National Park, located only a short distance to the north. Our guides will put you in at the headwaters, where you will embark on a beautiful 3-hour float down the Wood River to the Kimball Park day-use area. This river is known for its crystal clear waters and huge Brown Trout.

3rd day: Williamson River The stretch of the river for the tour is always a favorite, with lots of room to float around! We put in at Collier Memorial State Park day-use area and with a little paddling and some current make it to downtown Chiloquin in about 3 hours. It's a pretty easy trip with a couple of small ripples to go through to add to the fun. We'll paddle over the unique underwater lava formations where you will see the big Redband Trout, who call this river their home.

Each tour, river, and run offers unique variations, so you can expect to see and experience a lot over the course of three days! We're able to take many pictures during our tour. Our licensed Oregon guides have years of experience on the water and are dedicated to providing you with an enjoyable experience that you will remember for a lifetime.
