It’s the Kananaskis River with a twist!  As Rafters, we go head to head with the biggest rapids on the river.  After we’ve pushed through the rapid we then paddle back towards the flow and catch the wave.  Hang on tight, feel the power of the river as you surf the wave.  It’s a different way to experience Whitewater Rafting; we promise you won’t regret it.
On the Bow Valley Via Ferrata experience, travel up Steve’s Canyon and see how time has carved away at the limestone to create beautiful smooth faces in the canyon. Along the way, climb out to stunning views of the surrounding alpine landscape. This adventure offers a unique blend of geology, vertical movement, and visual reward.
The Grotto Canyon Ice Walk may be a quick approach, but it’s full of unforgettable winter magic. Your guide will lead you into a narrow frozen canyon where icy waterfalls, ancient pictographs, and towering rock walls surround you at every turn. With ice cleats strapped on, you’ll explore the frozen creek bed, take in breathtaking views, and discover one of the Bow Valley’s hidden winter gems. Hot chocolate, snacks, and chances to spot wildlife make this a must-do adventure for anyone visiting Canmore.
Looking to try Canyoning for the first time? Then this is the trip for you!

Heart Creek Canyon is also our closest trip to the townsites of Banff & Canmore (10 minutes east of Canmore, and 30 min east of Banff).
Big mountain views, glacial waters, beautiful spruce and pine shorelines and ample opportunities to catch a glimpse or two of some wildlife, are just a few of the highlights that our Townie Float offer our guests. Tie that in with a fully guided experience from one of our interpretive guides and this makes for the perfect outing for everyone. This gentle 1 hr float starts downtown Canmore, only a few minutes away from the local pubs, restaurants, shops and galleries, and only a hop, skip and a jump from most hotels and bed and breakfasts.
