One Day Kennebec Rafting Adventure

The Kennebec River Gorge is one of the most beautiful in the East with steep rock walls on both sides, and with many waves that are four to six feet high. Paddle into rapids with names like Big Mama, White Washer, and the infamous Magic Falls. Then, with the rapids behind us, jump in and float with the current while you feel the power of the river, taking you downstream.

After your raft trip, enjoy a delicious meal of rice pilaf, strip steak, cole slaw, roll, lemonade and homemade dessert (fish, chicken or veggie meal is available on request) followed by a slide and video show of your trip.

(Minimum Age: 10 years.)

Two-Day Wilderness Overnight Rafting Adventures

rafting_2daywildRaft the exciting Kennebec River Gorge on day one. (Some days we do Fun Yaks on day one.) Then enjoy a delicious BBQ followed by a slide and video show of your trip. Next, we will drive you to 90-foot Moxie Falls where you can take pictures and swim in the pools above the falls. After a refreshing dip in the cool water, we will take a back-road safari in our van, on the lookout for wildlife including moose, deer, eagles and osprey.

Back at the overnight site along the Dead River and near our base camp, you can lounge in our hot tub, take a shower, and use our other modern facilities. Set up your tent. Sit around the bonfire. Enjoy a few cold, frosty beverages and hors d'oeuvres. For dinner, you have a choice of lobster, steak or chicken, served with corn on the cob, baked potatoes and all the trimmings. After supper we will make hot apple crisp, homemade ice cream and the campers' favorite, s'mores.

The next day, enjoy breakfast prepared over an open fire and get ready for six miles of Class II and III whitewater in our exciting fun yaks. All trips include a Registered Maine Guide, safety instruction, equipment, and transportation.

Sports Boats

A sports boat is a 13-foot long raft, the smallest the State of Maine allows on the Kennebec and Dead Rivers. These rafts are very responsive especially on lower water flows, so we can surf and play in the smaller rapids. We were the first company to offer this kind of trip.

Add $10.00 per person to price of regular trip.
