is a perfect spot for the river enthusiast to stay. Outfitters provide
you with everything needed for a fun, safe trip. They even supply
a hearty, hot meal
All you need is a willingness to get wet and a thirst
for an adventure unlike any other!
The Kennebec River Whitewater Adventure features
12 mile trips from Harris Dam to The Forks through the Kennebec
Gorge's towering waves.
Penobscot River Whitewater Adventure is 14
miles of exciting descents from McKay Station to Pockwockamus Falls,
through the class V Ripogenus Gorge and Cribworks. The Penobscot
River is one of the most technical rivers to raft in the United
States and is full of thrill.
The Dead River has more whitewater per mile
than any river in the East and is pure excitement! The scenery is
spectacular in this Maine wilderness, offering opportunities to
see an abundance of wildlife. Moose, osprey and bald eagles are
all common sights in this high mountain country.
