BRUNO MOUNTAIN RAFTING TRIP DETAILS
Trying to find a cure to those early spring blues? Looking to challenge yourself and your friends to explore a new and exciting river? Join us on our latest premium river adventure! This Spring 2023, for the first season ever, we will be offering an epic new rafting trip in the Santiam Canyon on the Bruno Mountain stretch of the upper North Santiam!
Enjoy views of Mt. Jefferson while rafting through twelve miles of continuous class III+/IV- rapids. Not for the faint of heart, this stretch is naturally fed by snowmelt and spring rains making it runnable in May and June, (water level permitting). This upper section flows out of the Santiam wilderness and turns into action-packed wave trains and exciting rapids through spectacular Oregon forest in the spring months.
While this section has colder water, eNRG provides all the necessary cold water gear including farmer john wetsuits or drysuits to fend off chilly splashes and neoprene gloves. This amazing 3 hour trip ends at our Bruno Mountain Lodge where, after the float, warm by a fire with hot drinks and a delicious meal at our beautiful Bruno Mountain Lodge.

The pacific northwest is blessed with great water all year round. That said, those who want a more action-packed adventure should try rafting during the spring when rain and snow melt bring the flows up. Summer flows are great for families and those interested in a more relaxing experience. That said, with many sections to choose from, exhilarating whitewater can be found all summer long.
