Class 5 Rafting

It's hot. Unbearably hot. The humidity is through the roof. You're laying around inside your house and bored outta' your mind.

What's a person to do?

Plan an Ohiopyle Rafting trip! With 3 different sections to raft on, there is guaranteed to be a trip ideal for you.

The summer heatwave is here. Record highs are being set across the nation, and what better way to keep cool than to go on a family rafting trip!

The Lower Youghiogheny, located here in Ohiopyle State park, is the perfect trip for family vacation getaway. With 7.5 miles of class III/IV rapids, you are guaranteed to get wet. Its the perfect way to cool off!

If you want something a little more leisurely, then check out the Middle Yough. Starting upstream, just out of Ohiopyle State Park, you'll float down 11 miles of class I/II rapids. Whether you take a raft, personal paddle boat, or duckies, there are a number of spots where you can get wet or jump out and take a swim.

Our trips fill up quick, so don't wait, give us a call and reserve your rafting trip now! You'll be the coolest people around.

Guide escorted tours for Ohiopyle rafting trips at White Water Adventurers, Inc. (on the Middle Yough and Lower Yough) include a 4 to 6 person raft, paddles, personal flotation devices, helmets, a deli-style lunch, transportation back to the check-in area, and guide escorts in kayaks along with the trip (not in the raft with you).

That is your basic Ohiopyle rafting vacation. You can customize your  fun family vacation in many ways.

Upgrades include:  the captained raft option (a guide in the raft with you), taking a 1 or 2 person inflatable kayak instead of the raft, biking back to Ohiopyle instead of riding the bus, or for groups of 20 or more, having a BBQ/picnic after the trip.

Class 5 rafting trips on the Upper Yough include a 4 person raft (3 guests and 1 guide), paddles, personal flotation devices, helmets, transportation to the river and back to the check-in area in Ohiopyle,  and lunch at our coffee shop before the trip.

The Cheat River tour includes rafts (the size depends on the water level), paddles, personal flotation devices, helmets, a deli-style lunch, transportation to the river and back to the check-in area in Ohiopyle, and guides in the raft with you.

It's snowing steadily in Ohiopyle State Park, PA. We are in the middle of a winter wonderland.  If you're looking for a weekend trip or a quick getaway from the bustle of holiday preparations, the Yough Plaza Motel is open year round. The are no crowds and no need to hurry. Peace, quiet and snuggling (you provide the snuggle partner) are readily available.

It's not too late to order that gift certificate for a fun family vacation. Certificates can be purchased in any amount and are good for family rafting trips, class 5 rafting, biking and lodging.

It seems as though our guides are always around rafts even when they aren't working! Here, some of our staff are at a wedding taking one of our personal paddle boats to a pond to get some good photographs of the bride and groom. There weren't any rapids and they didn't even have to worry about getting wet!

While they had a good time, it certainly isn't the same as being on the Upper (Class 5 rafting) or even Ohiopyle rafting on the Lower (Class 3 rafting).

Needless to say, they are happy to be back in the area and are looking forward to more days on the river!
