An early spring New River whitewater rafting trip provides an extremely intense ride comparable to many western rivers. The spring season is the best time of year for New River as it offers an exciting ride with high water, ocean sized waves, and huge rapids. To beat it all, the Spring offers awesome rates, a calm atmosphere and blooming beauty all around.
This is the ultimate in top white water rafting in West Virginia. If you are a “go-for-it” person, you’ll love this rafting trip! Just be prepared for cool weather and big thrills!
There's nothing like crashing through huge waves and narrowly escaping from bus-sized hydraulics!

Swimming becomes not just a form of exercise but also a religious experience.
The rafts in our group had very little trouble on the intense Upper Gauley, and after watching several other companies perform on the river, I was even more impressed with the knowledge, experience, teamwork and teaching abilities of our guides. They knew how to do it well and make us feel 'safe' at the same time.
