Whether you are on a family outing, part of a corporate group taking a break from the boardroom, or an experienced rafter looking for the next challenge, we have a rafting trip that is perfect for you. Wet Planet takes advantage of the crystal clear water flowing from the glaciers on Mt. Adams and the stunning scenery of the Pacific Northwest to offer whitewater rafting trips for all skill levels of rafters in the Columbia River Gorge. From the remote wilderness stretches of the class III Klickitat River and Tieton River, to the classic glacier waters and basalt canyons of the White Salmon River, to the challenges of class V whitewater rapids on the Wind River and Farmlands , we have designed a variety of trips that are certain to meet the expectations of any whitewater rafter.

For those looking to develop the skills necessary to run rivers on their own, or experienced paddlers looking to improve their technique, the Wet Planet Kayak School offers kayak instruction for beginning to advanced paddlers. Taught by our ACA and BCU certified kayak instructors, our two-day and three-day kayak instruction courses are designed to teach novice kayakers the skills necessary to paddle Class I and II whitewater on their own. For more advanced paddlers, our intermediate and advanced lessons are perfect for improving upon skills and helping you reach the next level of paddling. If you are an experienced kayaker new to the area or just passing through, get out on the river with one of the Wet Planet kayak instructors. From great play spots to steep creeks, we can make sure that you get the most out of your time on the river.

The Wet Planet Rafting and Kayaking Center is located in the Columbia River Gorge National Scenic Area, on the Washington state side, along the banks of the White Salmon River. We are just 15 minutes from Hood River, Oregon, and only 1 hour and 15 minutes from Portland.

All of our guided rafting trips and kayak instruction begin at our riverside headquarters, alongside the White Salmon River. Here all of our guests are provided with everything needed for perfect Washington and Oregon whitewater rafting and kayaking adventures.
