The Wapta
by Rocky Mountain River Guides
Sunwapta River
Class 3
The Sunwapta River lives up to its Stoney Indian name of 'Turbulent Water'. The Sunwapta emerges from the Columbia Icefield and we raft very close to the headwaters of this silt-laden river. The Sunwapta offers an exciting combination of fast, fun rapids, incredible scenery and abundant wildlife.
This thrilling 3.5 hour round trip is Jasper's only class III+ whitewater trip with the shortest commute. It is perfect for the adventurous beginner and minors over 40 kilos (90lbs).
