Kumsheen Rafting Resort Mountain Biking
Come and enjoy what those who
have experienced
Kumsheens Ride and Raft Package know as “the perfect day”.
Start off by mountain biking down to the Thompson river, fill up on a hearty
lunch then jump on a whitewater raft for the afternoon. Returning to the
resort after your adventurous day provides a relaxing atmosphere for you and
your friends to grab a bite to eat, soak in the outdoor hot tub, and perhaps
even stay overnight on the campground or in a furnished cabin tent or
teepee. J-S will be your guide for the day. J-S has recently finished
developing the new Bike & Raft Tour. Kumsheen is the only rafting company in
Canada offering a program such as this. Your day will start with a shuttle
ride up Botanie Mountain, located at the very junction of the Thompson and
the Fraser Rivers in the Scarped mountain range. You will get dropped off
and momentarily enjoy the incredible view overlooking the ridgeline trail
that we will be following. From there it’s game on; First you will
descend onto the Devil’s Leap trail for a 4000 vertical foot drop on an epic
and uncharted single track run all the way back down to water level.
Then hop back in the truck, drive up the mountains again for A second run of
the day. This second run has yet to be named, as it is 2500 vertical feet of
pure freeride. It’s wide, steep and open to your interpretation. This run
will take you right down to the river again where lunch is ready for you and
conveniently meet with your raft.
