MESA: Guided Rafting Trip on the Lower Salt River

Embark on a scenic journey down the Lower Salt River aboard a 9-person inflatable raft. Marvel at the majestic desert Saguaros, towering cottonwood trees, and the historic Red Mountain while looking out for wild horses, cardinals, great blue heron, and other native wildlife.

Begin your guided 2-hour raft trip at Saguaro Lake Guest Ranch just below the Stewart Mountain Dam. Once you check in, your trained staff will provide you with a PFD (personal flotation device) and go over what to expect, paddle techniques, safety, and address any questions you have.

Your guides are knowledgeable about the surrounding area and will provide you with fun facts and a scenic adventure that you can tell all of your friends about. This is not a white water rapids trip, this is a more mellow and relaxing, scenic trip. You may get splashed a little but you can expect to stay mostly dry.
