Experience a Hellgate Jetboat Excursion

When it comes to Hellgate Jetboat Excursions, passengers are treated to several adventures in one trip. First, they receive the ride of their lives on a powerful, all-aluminum jet boat that skims the whitewater of the Rogue River in Grants Pass. During the excursion, pilots offer historic educational narratives of the area and descriptions of the surrounding habitat. Passengers get to rest at the beautifully designed Northwest River Lodge located at OK Corral and return to their jet boat to enjoy the rest of their homebound experience.

Jet boat pilots make their famous 360-degree spins, and those passengers with a need for more excitement strategically place themselves to achieve the maximum thrill seeking experience. At the completion of a 36- or 75-mile roundtrip jet boat excursion, the ride is always unforgettable. “People returning from the river ultimately return with smiles on their faces,” says Hellgate Owner Robert Hamlyn. “The best part about operating this whitewater adventure is knowing that guests are going to have the time of their lives. I love it when I hear people say, ‘I have to do that again.’”

As one of the only jet boat excursions on a designated Wild and Scenic river in the United States, Hellgate draws nearly 80,000 people every season, which runs from May through September. Visitors from all over the world make Grants Pass’ Hellgate their destination of choice in order to board the jet boats that skim just inches below the water’s surface.
