Whitewater River Rafting near Medford in Southern Oregon can provide one of those rare outdoor activities where it doesn't have to end as the sun goes down. Not only is the Rogue River considered the finest rafting in Oregon, but it also provides beautiful landscapes to enjoy while riding the rapids.
