18-Mile Exclusive All-Day Adventure
Price: Monday - Thursday: Adult: $95, Child: $85
Friday - Sunday: Adult: $99, Child: $89  Trip Length: 6 Hours
Check In: 9:30 AM
Get an exclusive trip on the Deschutes without paying the exclusive price. While every other company and private boater will be navigating the river during “rush hour traffic”, Imperial's All Day Exclusive Trip is different. We have our own “on-ramp” that no one else can use. So, no more bumper boats on the Deschutes with people you don't know. No more “taking a number” and waiting in line for the rapids. No more stories about “mythical” glimpses of wildlife. You'll get first crack at everything the Deschutes River has to offer, because when you go on this trip, it's FIRST CLASS all the way.
Guests of IRC will begin their river adventure from the front lawn of Imperial. You will be one of the first on the river and therefore have opportunities to view bald eagles, golden eagles, osprey, otters, deer, kingfishers, and much more. Float through rapids such as AC/DC, Surf City , Oak Springs, and the Elevators until we take out at Sandy Beach . We will portage around Sherar's Falls and start our second leg of the journey at Buck Hollow . While many agree that this is the most scenic section of the trip, others prefer the rapids that so few get to see such as Wake-Up, Lower Trestle , and Wreck Rapids. We'll take out at Pine Tree and go back to the lodge for a wonderful riverside lunch including grilled chicken, fresh Imperial Stock Ranch beef hamburgers, and more.
Take a few minutes to relax and soak in the sun. Or, play volleyball on our sand volleyball court. But don't forget...we still have 5 more miles of some of the best rapids that the Deschutes has to offer. That's right…Wapinitia, Devil's Hole, Boxcar, and Rodeo rapids are among a few of the rapids to round out the day. The adventure will end right back where we started, on the front lawn of IRC where you can look at photos and share the enjoyment and excitement of the day. Hands down, this is the best trip on the river!

When you are ready to take an adventuresome, yet relaxed vacation, stop right here. Check-in at the lodge the day before your river adventure starts.

All camping supplies are provided. That includes tents, sleeping bags, pads, all food and cooking equipment. Your guides will cook wonderful meals to fill the appetite you have created rowing your paddle raft through many great rapids.

You will negotiate big name rapids like Whitehorse and Buckskin Mary including all of the rapids in the 13 mile day trip section. Your two days on the water will bring you to Maupin where you will have lunch and then continue to Sandy Beach for the final take out. A shuttle bus returns you to Maupin for the end of two wonderful days, 45 miles of whitewater, and more class III rapids than you can remember with a couple of class IV’s for fun.
53 Mile, 3 Day - 3 Night Voyage Price: Adult/Child: $445
Thursday thru Saturday Launch NOT Available July 1st to Labor Day
- Price includes 1 night stay in a river view guest room at the lodge, prior to your trip.
When you are ready for the most relaxed whitewater voyage on the Deschutes River you want to take our three day trip. Included at the beginning of this trip is a night in a river view room at the lodge. This great trip is much like the two day voyage except for a couple of things. The put in is at Warm Springs, and you get to camp two nights on the river on your way to Maupin. Taking an extra day slows the pace of the trip and allows more time to soak up the beautiful canyon, and take some side hikes. You get all of the same river, just eight extra miles, and more time to enjoy it.
