Go white water rafting - Oregon’s rivers offer exceptional white water rafting, from deep canyons to mellow rapids for all ages. Outfitters all over the country offer day trips through spots like the Upper Klamath River and Rogue River in southern Oregon or a venture through the Sandy River with views of Mount Hood greeting you along the way.
