Our adventure lodge vacations in the spring are based around the best whitewater rafting river in North America, the Lochsa*. We offer four and five-day lodge adventure trips during the spring, starting in the middle of May. You'll stay at Idaho's premiere adventure lodge where all of your activities, food and professional guides are included in your trip.

Lochsa river rafting is only one reason guests enjoy our spring lodge adventures. You'll have the opportunity to horseback ride, hike and bike while enjoying beautiful vistas of the Bitterroot Mountains. These four and five-day lodge adventure itineraries have daily activities and excursions but also set aside time for guests to eat well, relax, enjoy a book on your cabin deck or sip wine in your private hot tub while gazing on the rippling Clearwater River.

These trips are priced based on the number of guests per trip. Roll-over the trip name below for the tier price breakdown.

Overview

At a Glance Duration: 4-5 days Season: May 17 - June 14 Minimum Age: 12 Begins In: Kooskia, ID Ends In: Kooskia, ID Airport: Lewiston, ID or Spokane, WA Adventure Lodge It is a magnificent time of change and renewal as spring approaches in the Bitterroot region. Bears awaken after long months of winter hibernation, squirrels are playing about, elk move up to the high country, and the Syringa, Idaho's state flower bursts into full bloom. As the climate grows warmer, snow starts to melt and the rivers come to life. Whitewater rafting enthusiasts from all over the world come to the Loscha for the best whitewater rafting experience in North America. The river's unique combination of huge volume and steep gradient lures whitewater rafters to the adventure lodge. The wild waters flow for over 60 miles, dropping at an amazing 30 feet per mile. That's almost three times the average of the Colorado River or the Snake in Hells Canyon, which drop at 11 feet per mile. While whitewater rafting in the spring might be the main attraction of River Dance Lodge, an Idaho adventure lodge, we also feature a lot of other exciting outdoor activities for our visitors. You can go on nature hikes to see wildflowers bloom in the nearby mountains or bask in the glorious waters of a wilderness hot spring. Perhaps you would like to learn more about the history of the Nez Perce tribe? Our adventure lodge is an ideal place for history and discovery of this beautiful region. You will find a refreshing taste of nature at River Dance Lodge. ROW Adventures have been hosting wild whitewater rafting adventures on the Loscha River since 1984, and is the leading rafting outfitter in the area. If you prefer a gentler river or more mellow adventures, you can also enjoy a float on the Middle Fork of Clearwater, horseback riding, hiking and bike riding. Lodge adventures are especially organized to make the most of your spring time vacation. We offer a five-day vacation package, called the Lochsa and Mountain Trails (from Sunday to Thursday) and a four-day vacation package, called the Weekend Whitewater Escape (from Thursday to Sunday) for you to choose from. Each package has an adventure series (for the more adventurous traveler) and an explorer series (for those looking for a lighter lodge adventure).
