The Hellgate Recreation Area, 27 miles long, from the mouth of the Applegate River to Grave Creek, is a popular stretch for day trips featuring 11 boat ramps, and Class I and II rapids. Commercial guides are required to have a permit to offer boat trips in the Hellgate Recreation Area. The area offers guided float trips, fishing trips, jet boat trips, shuttles and equipment rental services. Permits are not required for private boating parties. The Wild Rogue requires a permit for both private and commercial boat trips. The Wild Rogue, 32.4 miles, Grave Creek to Watson Creek, is a Class III river, with a few class IVs, and is usually traveled in 3 to 4 days by float boating or 5 days by hiking. There are two boat ramps - Grave Creek, the put-in, and Foster Bar, the take-out. If you are planning a guided float trip on the Wild Rogue, check our commercial outfitter web page. There are also jet boat trips that go upstream from Gold Beach to Blossom Bar. Enjoy your visit to the Rogue!
