Extreme Class V Whitewater Rafting on the Gauley River WV (Fall Only)

High adrenaline rafting on the Gauley River's Class IV/V rapids, including the infamous drop over Sweets Falls! A great trip for those with previous rafting experience who want to take on new challenges at a whole new level with one of our expert guides. Amazing adventure, includes catered lunch, usually with a great view of the other rafts, where you can cheer and witness the good, the bad, and the ugly attempts over the Falls. Fall weather is variable, and wetsuits are available for rent if appropriate. On the bus ride to the river, we will go over safety instructions, get you ready for what to expect, and give you one last chance to back out! At the river, you will get into your group's raft with your Guide, and immediately enter the Gauley River with dam water actively being released. (Hint: there is no slow warm-up, be ready!) You will immediately paddle and feel the rush of excitement as the trip gets off to a fast start! The river terrain is impressive, with huge boulders, dramatic drops, and quick changes in expanse and elevation.
