About This Trip

Spend each day rafting through beautiful Oregon forests, where wildlife abounds, and there’s no shortage of jaw-dropping scenery to marvel at. As you head downriver, you’ll get to explore lush trails that take you to magical places. Perhaps you’ll visit Western novelist Zane Grey’s cabin, or you may hike up to Inspiration Point for an incredible view of Stair Creek Falls and watch other rafters take on the swirling Coffee Pot Rapid. With numerous historical points of interest and fern-lined paths to waterfalls and more, your days on the Rogue are sure to leave you in awe. And hungry. But don’t worry, for your inner foodie the best is yet to come….

After pulling into camp for the day, everyone will unload the rafts, and you can find the perfect spot to set up your tent for the night. Get cozy, and then make your way over to start sampling delicious wines, perfectly paired with delectable hors d’oeuvres. You can join the chair circle to continue getting to know your newfound friends, or you might feel drawn to the river’s edge for a moment of quiet reflection and some time with a good book. Soon your personal chef will have a meal prepared guaranteed to knock your Chacos off.

“The food was over the top delicious. I was so impressed by the freshness of the ingredients day after day on the river. I especially appreciated the real silverware, wine glasses and cloth napkins…love the details.”

Tina S., 2023 Wilderness Gourmet guest

Working with fresh, local ingredients, your chef will wield masterful artistry as they create delightful dishes in this bewitching backwoods setting. You’ll sit at linen-draped, candlelit tables with your fellow rafters and break bread. The conversation will be flowing, as will the wine, and an abundance of laughter will fill the air. As you head to bed with a satisfied stomach and happy heart, you’ll ponder the memories made that day as the mellifluous river lulls you to sleep.
