Upper New River Overnight 3 Days
Overview
A 3-Day Trip They’ll Always Remember
An extension of our 2-day overnight trip on the Upper New River, this 3-day rafting adventure is ideal for families who want more time under the sun and in the water. You’ll enjoy the gentle rapids this section of the river is known for during the day, and when the sun goes down, we’ll cozy up by the fire at a secluded campsite.
This trip includes three days of rafting, one night of camping, lots of exploring, and plenty of food and fun in between.

About the River
What’s Included
Transportation is covered from the resort to the river and back again. We’ll also provide all your rafting equipment (helmet, personal flotation device or PFD, paddle, and boat) and a complimentary beverage.
What to Bring
Bring any medication you need throughout the day, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a change of clothes to keep at the resort to change into after your trip. Guides carry small, waterproof bags to stow necessary medications. Depending on the time of year and the weather, you may also want a synthetic layer. If necessary, wetsuits and splash jackets are available for rent. Call us to book those, too.
Trip Time
Your Boat & Guide
We typically take inflatable kayaks on the Upper New. They are one or two-person rafts shaped like kayaks. With an inflatable kayak, you’ll get to experience a more personal whitewater rafting challenge on a craft that’s stable, fun, and easy to maneuver. Our inflatable kayaks are self-bailing, which means water that splashes in will drain out on its own. Our standard, 16-foot rafts are available upon request or when the water is high. These comfortably seat eight rafters and one river guide. River guides will be either in rafts or in inflatable kayaks to lead the pack, and they’re experts at working with beginner rafters and families with small children. Learn more about our guides.
