River Classifications

This international river classification provides river enthusiasts with an overview of each class of water.
​
Class I: Wide, flat, and slow moving water. Ideal for float trips in rafts. Hazards that can potentially be present are overhanging trees and log jams.

"Stellar terms: Scenic, relaxing and calm"
Sounds like you look to book:
FRASER RIVER SCENIC FLOAT


 All of our raft trips include some amount of gentle Class 1 waters

Class II: Faster moving water with an increased current and waves. This type of water is typical for canoeing.

All our whitewater rafting trips have some Class 2 rapids at various stages of the rivers. 
​
Class III: Larger waves are present due to an increased gradient drop and/or the narrowing of the river resulting in a stronger current. Some obstructions are present but navigating is simple to the trained individual. This type of water is typical for family rafting.
