The First of Its Kind in the World

Welcome to The Payette River Whitewater Park at Southfork Landing: the first adventure whitewater amenity for any residential community anywhere. The Park is located within the Southfork Landing development, alongside and without interfering with the natural stream flow of the South Fork of the Payette River. The park is unique in its conservation-orientation, consistent with the development approach at Southfork Landing.

The Payette River Whitewater Park at Southfork Landing will be a premier whitewater experience for kayakers, but we are designing this park so we can easily adjust the flow of water for people of all ages and abilities including boogie boards, inner tubes, inflatable kayaks, canoes, kayaks and small, recreational rafts. It is an amenity for the entire community and a signature Idaho whitewater venue.

The pond-to-pond flow will improve aeration and the life and health of the ponds and local trout. It features pond-to-pond water flow over 200 linear feet, has three (3) drops, and concentrated moderate flows to create exciting whitewater features for the wide variety of enthusiasts spanning the range from inner tubes to kayaks. In addition, Cascade Raft Company plans to manage and operate a full-service retail shop at Southfork Landing.

While the Whitewater Park may be under construction, that hasn't stopped us from getting out on the many ponds at Southfork Landing and having some fun. Here's a short clip from the July 08 Summerfest Western Days event.
