Whitewater Rafting Trip on the Middle Fork of the American River

About this Experience

What you'll do:

Ready to crank up the adventure for your big celebration? Hit the Middle Fork of the American River for a thrilling rafting trip through a remote, wild canyon filled with Class III and IV rapids, crystal-clear water, and jaw-dropping scenery.

With professional guides leading the way, your group will take on legendary whitewater like Tunnel Chute—a human-made rapid that sends you straight into a river tunnel—and still have time to relax in calm stretches between the action.

The Middle Fork is ideal for crews who want something a little bolder, a little more off-the-grid, and a whole lot of fun. Choose from a 1-day adventure with a riverside lunch or go big with a 2-day or 3-day overnight trip for the ultimate party getaway.

Why we love it for your party:

  • Remote wilderness setting that feels like your own private adventure

  • Epic Class III and IV rapids = major bonding moments

  • Overnight trips include camping on the beach and freshly prepared gourmet meals

  • 1-day option includes a satisfying riverside lunch

  • Escape the ordinary and celebrate in serious style
