Whitewater
Our whitewater shop is located just over an hour from Portland in mill city, right at mill city falls – a perfect place to either start or end your time on the Santiam River. You may also rent whitewater gear from our Oregon City Shop to paddle three different Class I-II stretches of the Clackamas River.
The Santiam River is great regardless of your experience level. You can choose between a section that has four class III rapids (Swirlies, Spnecers Hole, Carnivore, and Mill City Falls) or a slower section with class I and II rapids. No matter what you choose you’re in for a treat – likely to encounter steelhead, salmon, and some pristine sections of aquamarine colored water.
