Beginning in mid-May, you can experience class 3 and 4 rapids along the 6.5 mile trip. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, try our Extreme Upper River Rafting trip starting in mid-May, which features a smaller raft, making the rapids feel even bigger!

For families with younger children, try our Lower Pigeon River Rafting trip. Available May through September, the Lower Pigeon River Rafting trip offers a more relaxing ride down the river that everyone can enjoy.
