The Lower New River, in the heart of the New River Gorge National Park, is a favorite for first-time rafters and whitewater enthusiasts alike. This class II-IV section of whitewater has large shelf drops and boulders- a perfect combination of waves and hydraulics that make for world-class rafting.

The Lower New River Rapid Run trips kick off about 1:00pm daily, and should be back around 3:30pm (5:00pm would be the extreme latest). Lunch is not included.

Rates listed include a $10.00 discount – be sure to use this registration page to receive this offer!

You may want to rent a wetsuit and/or a splashjacket. Pre-paid rates are: $20 for the combo, $12 for the wetsuit alone, and $8 for the splashjacket alone. Please make note in the text box at the end if you’d like to add this on now.
