NRS Orion Packraft

NRS Orion Packraft – Lightweight Adventure for the Wild Waters of Alberta

Explore the backcountry without limits with the NRS Orion Packraft — your ultimate all-terrain, go-anywhere inflatable craft. Designed for anglers, hikers, and explorers who want to travel light but fish hard, the Orion combines durability, stability, and portability in one sleek package.

Weighing just a few pounds, it packs down small enough to fit in your backpack yet delivers big-water performance when you reach the river. Built with rugged urethane-coated nylon, the NRS Orion handles alpine lakes, swift creeks, and mellow floats with ease — perfect for those off-the-grid Elbow River or Kananaskis backcountry missions.

Product Tips

Note: Long exposure to sun and high temperatures can increase air pressure in packraft seats, leading to overinflation. Overinflation can damage seams or worse, pop the seat. We suggest bleeding off air pressure or fully deflating in these conditions.
