Whitewater Challengers

Located in the Pocono Mountains of northeastern Pennsylvania, the Lehigh River Gorge is the perfect place for your next whitewater rafting adventure.

Flowing through valleys between the Pocono and Appalachian Mountains, the Lehigh River features several sections of rapids. Therefore making it the perfect place for recreational outdoor activities like whitewater rafting and inflatable kayaking. Natural rapids are further enhanced on dam release days, when extra water intensifies the rapids, providing an even more exciting rafting experience.

Lehigh River rafting trips in Pennsylvania with Whitewater Challengers are available during the spring, summer and fall.
