BEGINNERS

Our Canadian Rockies multisport trip is perfect for beginners. It will introduce you to three of the most exciting adventure sports and will provide you with the knowledge and skills you need to practice these sports on your own upon returning home. Whitewater kayaking, rafting, and downhill mountain biking are sports that require specific knowledge and techniques to get started, so it's important that you receive the right instruction from the beginning. Our instructors are experts and have taught scores of beginners in these sports. They will provide you with personalized, hands-on and encouraging instruction so you can maximize your progress and enjoyment.

The Bow River is excellent for beginners as it offers different classes of rapids. We begin our instruction with a review of kayak equipment and river safety, and learn self rescue, Eskimo roll, brace paddle techniques in gentle Class I & II rapids. You'll learn how to use some of our paddling maneuvers in a 6-person raft, and experience the adrenaline rush of class III & IV rapids in this larger boat. Downhill mountain biking instruction will take place at the Canada Olympic Park in Calgary, perfectly suited for learning downhill riding technique. We'll progress to Panorama Resort where the trails are a bit more challenging and we can really experience the thrill of downhill riding.
