Salt River Arizona Spring Whitewater Rafting Adventure!

Like all rivers, the Salt River has unique characteristics. It's outstanding beauty and grandeur are partly a result of it's location on the southern edge of the Colorado Plateau. The Salt River is host to a vast quantity of plants, animals and birdlife that depend on it's varied ecosystem to survive and thrive. It offers an outstanding recreational opportunity with it's many world class rapids and stunning biological diversity. The Salt River Canyon is truly one of the southwest's hidden treasures .

The Salt is a class III and IV whitewater river that drops an average 25 feet per mile for over 50 miles through rocky, inaccessible canyons. It flows through oak and juniper woodlands down into striking Lower Sonoran desert vegetation with its giant multi-armed saguaro cactus and profusion of cactus of every description. Several side canyons reveal oasis-like microhabitats that are a moist reprieve from the prickly cactus environment. Excellent scenic riverside campsites are abundant and accessible only by raft.

The Salt River is located 2 ¼ hours northeast of Phoenix and a similar distance north of Tucson, Arizona.
