Your 3 to 5 hour journey takes you 11 miles through the Youghiogheny River Gorge. Lose yourself in our beautiful, green mountains away from the sights and sounds of civilization. It’s just you and the river. Wildlife sightings are common. People often see deer, otter, and even bald eagles!
Your professional guides are always nearby to lead the way and point out interesting sights along the way.
Nothing says togetherness like a day spent rafting down a gentle river. Our guides escort you as you discover the wonders this hidden gem within the Ohiopyle State Park. Explore Ohiopyle with White Water Adventurers, only two hours from Pittsburgh and ideal for your Laurel Highlands vacation!
We gladly accept reservations year round for rafting trips April-October.

No. All activities run regardless of the weather conditions unless we deem conditions to be unsafe. River activities still go in case of thunderstorms as well.
We recommend that if you’re concerned about the weather you check the forecast the day before your tour so that if you don’t want to risk riding in the rain, you can call us to reschedule before the 24 hour deadline. If you call less than 24 hours before the tour, you can cancel your tour but you’ll not receive a refund, as noted in our cancelation policy.
We monitor river conditions constantly. We reserve the right to reschedule any trip to an alternate section of the river or to a different river if conditions warrant. We may also change the length of the trip, raft size or number of guests per raft. If we must cancel a trip due to conditions, a full refund will be given.

White water rafting is a physically demanding activity; including some dangers and inherent risks. Special safety equipment must be worn in order to participate. The equipment does not fit all body shapes and sizes. Please consider all aspects of your physical condition before making reservations. We can assume no responsibility for personal safety or loss of personal property. We will ask you to sign a liability release/assumption of risk form before you make the trip. All minors must have permission from a parent or legal guardian written on our standard release form. You travel at your own risk. No drugs or alcohol are permitted. We reserve the right to refuse service (with no refund) to anyone we deem unfit to participate in white water rafting. We are not responsible for any lost or stolen items while visiting White Water Adventurers, Inc.
-
Children under 5 years of age are not permitted on this section. We do monitor waivers prior to guest arrival. We reserve the right to refuse service with no refund if we discover a participant under minimum age. Please don’t disappoint your child by scheduling them for an inappropriate section.
-
Each raft holds up to 6 people. We run multiple rafts per availability.
If you have more than 6 people, we are happy to take your group, but they will be in more than 1 raft. If you have less than 6 people, you will be riding with random other people.
-
Absolutely! When you are making your reservation, simply reserve for a party of 6. You’ll have the raft for yourself, even if you arrive with fewer people. Keep in mind that there are no refunds for unused seats.
-
Probably. Seats on the rafts are on a first-come, first-served basis. If we have the capability of letting you ride on the same raft as your friend who has their own reservation, we’ll be happy to set that up for you. You need to call us at 724-329-8850 to let us know, however. If you don’t call us, we’ll have no clue that you want us to put you together, if it’s even possible. If you’re trying to ride with someone who already has a reservation, the easiest way to ensure you’re all together – if we have the seats available – is to have the person who’s already booked a tour call us and add however many people are in your group to their reservation.
