Our Adventure Resort
| Of the four weeks we took in BC, our trip to REO was the most stress free and exciting time of our vacation. The all-inclusive plan is the way to go. We are already planning a trip next summer to include more family. |

The Nahatlatch (pronounced Na-hat-latch) is a very special place. The jade-green color of the river reflects its pristine source, the glaciers and snowfields of the coastal mountains.
From elevations above 8,000 feet, the headwaters drop quickly to the upper Nahatlatch valley, a series of beautiful lakes and meandering river sections. The upper valley is 27 Km (17 mi) long and lies at an elevation of 1000-1100 feet. The views of the surrounding snow-capped mountain peaks and ancient forests of spruce, fir, pine and cedar are spectacular. The main tributary of the upper Nahatlatch valley is Mehatl Creek, an incredible wilderness park.
The lower Nahatlatch valley from Francis Lake to the Fraser River is just 13 Km (8 miles), yet the river drops 600 feet with 37 whitewater rapids. The lower valley is an intoxicating mix of white water, jade-green pools, rugged shale-rock canyons, and panoramic mountains and forests. REO is located in this lower valley, 3 Km upstream from the confluence of the Fraser River.
The REO Adventure Resort is ideally located to enjoy the beauty and serenity of the Nahatlatch Valley, located only 2.5 hours from Vancouver. Our resort is perfect to host retreats, family reunions, weddings, and corporate team building events. - Surrounded by whitewater. Our resort is surrounded by whitewater. The river's incredible jade-green colour and the beautiful mountain and canyon setting that frame the valley, provides a pleasing scenic backdrop. Across from our river edge dining deck, a beautiful waterfall cascades into the river.
- Superb summer climate. Our resort receives 300 blue-sky days a year and records average summer highs of 29 C (85 F). Our hot summer days are cooled by the river for perfect summer time camping and activities during the day. Our near bug-free environment is also unique and greatly appreciated by our guests. It is difficult to find amore ideal location for summer fun, anywhere in Canada.
World-class recreation. The Nahatlatch is a rarity among rivers due to its super-continuous whitewater. Kayakers and rafting guests come from around the world to paddle its exciting Class 3-5 whitewater rapids. Not only is the river valley a mecca for paddling, it is also the perfect location for mountain biking, hiking, canoeing and fishing.
Free whitewater rafting photo CD
Each person, including students, on an overnight package in June, July or August will receive a free whitewater rafting photo CD ($50 value) of their rafting trip.
