Rogue River Trail Hiking Trip Oregon Travel Information

Accomodations

All Rogue River rafting trips leave from our shop, the Rogue River Center at 210 Merlin Rd, Merlin OR. so plan on meeting us there. We have a secure parking lot for you to leave your vehicle. Due to the early hour of the day we strongly recommend staying locally the night before your trip. We also suggest you make arrangements for the night after your trip. Here are a few of the local accomodations in the Grants Pass area.
Bybee Historic Inn 877-292-3374
Redwood Motel in Grants Pass 888-535-8824
Shiloh Inn Grants Pass Oregon 541-479-8391
La Quinta Inn Grants Pass Oregon 541-472-1808

Airlines

The closest commercial airport is in Medford, Oregon, 34 miles southeast of the Rogue River Center. In the Medford Airport there are five car rental companies (Budget, Avis, National, Enterprise, and Hertz). We can also arrange a shuttle from the airport to your hotel in Grants Pass, although for most groups it is more cost effective and easier to rent a car. Please note: Our trips return too late in the day for us to ensure you will make a flight out of Medford same day. We suggest making reservations for the next day after the trip concludes.
