Blackfoot River Easy Scenic Rafting
Easy Scenic Floating for the Whole Family!
CLASS II & EASY FLOATING, 4 & OLDER, APRIL-AUGUST
The Blackfoot river offers a variety of rafting opportunities, including a gorgeous scenic float through classic Montana scenery. This is the famous “River that Runs Through It” on the way to Glacier National Park – a must-see for summer travelers!
Be Apart of the Legend!
On Pangaea’s “Easy Scenic Float” you can choose between paddling or relaxing. If you chose not to paddle, your expert guide will row you through legendary country, pointing out Western highlights and pausing occasionally at the most picturesque spots on the river. Full day trips include lunch and several stops along the river, while the raft and blast trip has no lunch and no stops.
A Little Of Everything
The main Blackfoot River offers outstanding scenery as it meanders through undeveloped river bottoms, occasional farmland, and secluded canyons. It’s an excellent area to see bald eagles, as several pairs nest along the river. Look for white-tailed deer, elk, sand-hill cranes, and various kinds of waterfowl.
Keep Your Eyes Open For The Unexpected
You’ll see deer, eagles, beaver and an occasional elk, moose or bear as your cares drift away. This trip will relax, entertain, and inspire. This trip is the safest, driest option for those who want to enjoy the beauty of the river without the whitewater.
Enjoy Just A Taste Of Whitewater!
The Blackfoot River doesn’t have the kind of whitewater like the Alberton Gorge on the Clark Fork, but it does have milder rapids that you can blast through or avoid depending on your mood. Your guide will get you wet and entertain the kids if you want to introduce them to what whitewater rafting is like.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Your Guide Makes The Difference
Your guides are highly qualified river runners who have years of experience and hours of training on the river. Not only are they the safest guides on the river, they are the “FUNNEST” guides on the river too. Squirt guns and boat games are standard on every trip. Our guides would make a mud puddle fun!!!
What to Bring:
Clothes that can get wet and dry out quickly- avoid cotton as it gets wet, stays wet and makes you cold. Sun block, sun glasses, hat, dry clothes to change into after the trip, shoes or sandals. NO FLIP FLOPS or BARE FEET.
Recommendations:
Pangaea recommends the Blackfoot River as an early summer river trip “if” the Clark Fork River runs too high in May or June. If the Clark Fork River flows are appropriate, Pangaea recommends the Clark Fork River as our premier rafting experience.
Directions:
Rafters driving from Spokane or Coeur d’alene, meet at Pangae’s River Store on the Clark Fork River. Then we drive east to the Blackfoot River (about an hour). Missoula rafters meet us on the Blackfoot River, an easy drive from Missoula.
