Lehigh Gorge State Park Guided Whitewater Rafting

Reviewers consistently praise the professional, friendly staff who make safety a priority while keeping things fun and lighthearted. Guides like Sid, Jennifer, Kurt, and John get multiple shout-outs for their expertise and welcoming personalities. The company handles everything smoothly from registration through equipment rental, and instructors clearly know their stuff when it comes to teaching proper techniques. The campground gets high marks for cleanliness and amenities, including a snack bar, gift shop, and showers for afterward. The Lehigh River trips typically run around 4 hours on the water with a mix of Class II and III rapids plus calmer stretches perfect for beginners and experienced rafters alike. Expect to get wet, so skip the cotton and consider their wetsuit rentals. Dam release weekends create more exciting conditions. Groups of all sizes and ages seem to have great experiences, from families to seniors. A few logistical notes: there's a midway lunch break where you'll want to bring your own food (stored in provided buckets), and the exit process can involve some waiting. One visitor felt a guide was rude, though this seems to be an outlier among otherwise glowing feedback about staff friendliness.
