On the day of your trip, arrive at White Water Adventurers’ office 30 minutes prior to your scheduled time. This will allow you enough time to obtain a PFD. If you have any items you are taking with you, coolers, fishing equipment, etc, please have that with you and ready to go.
From there, a member of our rental staff will load your equipment onto the equipment truck for you and transport it to the Middle Yough put-in, roughly 10 miles away in Confluence. PA. Transportation of your group is provided in your equipment rental cost by White Water Adventurers. You will then proceed down the river at your own pace (approx. 4 hrs).
After traveling 10 miles down the Middle Yough you will arrive back in Ohiopyle. You will notice large signs on the river-left informing you of the Middle Yough take-out. This is where you will exit the river.
Carry your craft up the hill to the parking lot. Leave the craft at the White Water Adventurers vehicle in the parking lot and walk your party with life jackets and paddles across town to our main office location (about 2 blocks).
