Upper Gauley River
The Upper G earns its rep as one of the premier 1-day raft runs in the world. It drops 335 feet in 10 miles and includes 5 of the most classic rapids on Earth, including Pillow Rock, which many call the best 10 seconds in whitewater. We’ll take physically-fit first-time rafters, but for most people, we recommend you try something else out first, like the Lower Gauley.

Lower Gauley River
The Lower Gauley is 17 miles long and is the epitome of scenic gorges. Though the fall UPPER Gauley is often called the premier whitewater run in the region, the Lower has 2 of the 3 biggest Gauley hits. Who likes it? First-time rafters with a sense of adventure and experienced boaters, too, for all the big waves!
