Youth Rafting & Kayaking Adventure Program

Program Overview: Embark on an unforgettable adventure with our Youth Rafting & Kayaking Adventure Program! Located near Park City and spanning the beautiful stretches of the Weber River between Henefer and Morgan, our program offers half-day and full-day sessions filled with exciting river rafting, kayaking, hiking, and lake kayaking trips. Designed for youth aged 8-18, participants will have fun with friends, improve river paddling and navigational skills, practice stewardship principles, and can even earn volunteer community service hours.

What We Offer:

  • Varied Schedule: Full-day adventures every Tuesday throughout the summer. Half-day river trips meet up with the Full-day group in the afternoon.
    Full-day sessions include a morning hike or lake kayaking trip on alternating weeks.
