Discover why the Lower New River is a favorite among everyone from novice rafters to paddling enthusiasts on this epic whitewater rafting adventure!
Combine the rush of advanced whitewater, the natural beauty of the New River Gorge and the camaraderie of a paddling trip for an exciting outdoor adventure. These Class II, III, and IV rapids along the Lower New River will deliver a whitewater rafting trip you’ll never forget.
Meet up with your professional guides, who will get you outfitted for your journey and be with you at every surf and eddy to show you the best routes through the rapids…and there are plenty of rapids to keep you on your toes. The Lower New River steps up the pace with exciting whitewater that covers over 25 heart-pumping rapids, ranging from Class II to Class IV.
Between the rapids formed by house-sized boulders, you’ll come across calm pools, perfect for swimming, rock jumping, or taking in the spectacular sandstone cliffs of the New River Gorge. Paddle onto the beach for a delicious riverside lunch before heading back out to finish the day with a splash.
There’s nothing quite like a whitewater rafting adventure, and there’s no better place to run West Virginia’s rapids than the Lower New River!
