Rafting Adventures The Expedition Kayak
Explore the Lehigh Gorge State Park in an inflatable kayak!
On The Expedition inflatable kayak trip, you’ll take control, challenge yourself and get a great workout. Explore 12 miles of the Lehigh River when it is not open to whitewater rafters! You will independently navigate and explore the Lehigh Gorge State Park via an inflatable or sit a top kayak. You will catch eddies and ride waves while discovering the history of the Lehigh River in Jim Thorpe. Our river guides will be with you the entire time providing basic instruction on how to maneuver, surf and navigate the river as well as help you get back in your kayak if and when you swim.
The Expedition is a Pocono Whitewater Exclusive Trip. In addition to this, our other Pocono Whitewater Exclusive trips include the Big Day Out and Moonlight Rafting.
Your adventure doesn’t end on the river! Hit the Rail Trail for a scenic bike ride through the Lehigh Gorge or gear up for an all-out battle at Skirmish Paintball — the largest paintball facility in the world. Call 1-800-944-8392 or visit the links to plan your next thrill.
