North Santiam River
Rafting
The North Santiam River is located just 30 miles from Salem, Oregon and is
very convenient for the entire Willamette Valley! This river is one of the best
late summer and fall-time runs in the state. There are plenty of class III
rapids on this river. Some of the challenging rapids that we will paddle through
are the Swirlies, Carnivore, Spencer’s Hole, Mill City Falls and many others.
The river is lined with beautiful trees, scenic views and a very relaxing
atmosphere. The North Santiam offers a great adventure for groups of all sizes.
This river is perfect for the entire family. So if you are anywhere is the
Willamette Valley and would like a perfect daylong getaway, you cannot beat the
North Santiam.
