Whitewater Dam Release!

Experience the best whitewater rafting in the Tri-State area.

Come whitewater raft the Lehigh River, this is when water levels are at their highest.  Water released from the Francis E. Walter Dam raises water levels bringing whitewater rafting to a whole new level.  You’ll find yourself navigating Class II & Class III rapids through the scenic Lehigh Gorge.
