MORE DETAILS

Every September and October, one of the top whitewater rafting trips in the world emerges when the water is released from Summersville Lake into the Gauley River. Consisting of 5 class V rapids and dozens of class III-IV, this is a rafting trip to remember. This is THE trip for experienced rafters, thrill-seekers, and adrenaline junkies, and a bucket list item for many. The remote gorge offers stunning views of untouched wilderness, best explored in a raft.

FALL GAULEY SEASON

Fall Gauley Season, a bucket list item for many, is a legendary, unforgettable experience. Starting each September, the US Army Corp of Engineers releases the water from Summersville Lake for 6 weekends in a row. The water flows into the Gauley River, creating a run many consider to be the top single-day rafting trip in the world.

This scenic and remote river has two sections, one that is a pulse-pounding, wild, class V adventure, and another that is a little tamer. The Upper, more wild section of river boasts five class V+ rapids, including a 14-foot waterfall.

The Lower Gauley section is considered by many to be one of the most beautiful stretches of river that we run (and that’s saying something).

TRIP PHOTOS AND VIDEO

Waterproof cameras/GoPros are allowed on ACE rafting trips.
An ACE photographer will take photos along the way for purchase after the trip in the Outfitter store at ACE Adventure Resort or here on our online store…
All Lower New River Gorge rafting trips will have a trip video, Upper New River Gorge trips will have a photographer only.

PLEASE NOTE!

In highly unusual circumstances we may have to change the section of river, or the river you are running, when extremely high water levels occur.
