À quoi s'attendre

Adventures on the Gorge

Meet your rafting trip leader at the departure point. You will listen to a brief orientation and get your gear (personal flotation device, helmet and paddle). Then, you will have a 45-minute ride on a school bus down to the river put-in. Your guide will go over additional instructions once you get in the raft. A return shuttle with complimentary beverages brings you back to the resort.

Gauley River

The trip begins with a few smaller class I-III rapids as you ease into paddling and working as a team. Then, you hit some bigger rapids rated class IV-V. About half-way through the trip, you will pull over and eat a grilled hot riverside lunch on the shore. After lunch, you will continue downstream into some more booming whitewater. Here you’ll go through several rapids rated class III-V, like Koontz’s Flume and PSH. Between rapids, there is time for a swimmer’s rapid and maybe (based on water levels) jumping off of rocks. A return shuttle with complimentary beverages brings you back to the resort.

Aventures dans les gorges

Rencontrez votre accompagnateur de rafting au point de départ. Vous écouterez une brève orientation et récupérerez votre équipement (vêtement de flottaison individuel, casque et pagaie). Ensuite, vous ferez un trajet de 45 minutes en autobus scolaire jusqu'à l'entrée de la rivière. Votre guide passera en revue les instructions supplémentaires une fois que vous serez monté dans le radeau. Une navette aller-retour avec boissons gratuites vous ramène au complexe.

Rivière Gauley

Le voyage commence par quelques petits rapides de classe I-III pendant que vous vous familiarisez avec la pagaie et le travail en équipe. Ensuite, vous frappez des rapides plus gros classés de classe IV-V. À mi-chemin du voyage, vous vous arrêterez et mangerez un déjeuner chaud grillé au bord de la rivière sur le rivage. Après le déjeuner, vous continuerez en aval dans des eaux vives plus en plein essor. Ici, vous traverserez plusieurs rapides classés de classe III-V, comme Koontz’s Flume et PSH. Entre les rapides, il y a du temps pour un nageur rapide et peut-être (en fonction du niveau de l'eau) sauter des rochers. Une navette aller-retour avec boissons gratuites vous ramène au complexe.

Upon arriving at the lodge/check in we were really happy with the appearance of the grounds and buildings. Everything was up to date and really well taken care of. I would describe it as very rustic luxury. Our cabin was clean but did have a minor issue. There was no actual grill which was listed on the provided amenities, in replacement they have a grate over the fire pit. Not exactly what we wanted but we made it work. Could have used a few more pans of different sizes. Our bed was really squeaky, to the point it woke up others when we would get out of bed. The guide was really good, though seemed a little put off ish and cocky. I think the staff on the grounds was fantastic. The views from base camp are unmatched. Speaking of base camp there are a lot of things to do and you will not be bored. We didn't try any of the food but I had heard good things from others. We will be back again next year to try our hand at the Upper portion.

My husband and I had an outstanding time rafting the Lower Gauley!!! Justin Everette was our guide. He was terrific: personable & good at what he does, just a really great guide :-). My husband wants to go back and do the Upper Gauley next year (gulp, lol). We would definitely ask for Everette again. In the past we have rafted the Lower New River, also through Adventures on the Gorge, which was also so much fun. If you're debating whether or not to try whitewater rafting, definitely try it.

This place offers a great experience for white water rafting. The company has experienced guides who truly look out for your safety. Our guide Scott made our experience a memorable one. We stayed in the Sunny Side hotel like cabins. Its well worth the money for the comfort level they provide. Rafting trip was an all day event and it is well run and goes very smoothly. The on site restaurants provide good food at a fair price. The staff are all a friendly helpful group of people. Thanks Scott you truly rock.
