*Historically the majority of these trips occur on the Gauley River.
Description
Some of the best whitewater in our area can only be accessed by kayaks and other smaller watercraft, and that’s where our High-Performance Inflatable Kayak (A.K.A. “Ducky”) Trip comes in.
We’ll show you the best whitewater on the day of your trip based on river conditions. This trip offers a higher challenge level than our traditional whitewater trips and is only recommended for experienced rafters.
Please note, We only run this trip on Sundays, Tuesdays, and Thursdays.
MORE DETAILS
See the best whitewater in the region from an inflatable kayak on our Most Exciting Ducky Trip. The perfect trip for thrill seekers who want to be the captain of their own watercraft, this trip is recommended for adventurers who have prior whitewater experience. Your guides will pick the best river to run on the day of your trip, factoring in mother nature and varying water levels. You’ll stop halfway through the day to enjoy a riverside lunch, before hitting the water for more rowdy whitewater fun.

TRIP TIPS
Prior rafting experience is highly recommended, this is not a beginner friendly trip!
This is the most physically challenging trip we offer in the summer. You should be prepared to paddle hard but be rewarded with incredible adventure and fun.
The river and section that we run will be based on current water levels the day of your trip. We will take you to the best stretch available that day.
Make sure you can handle unpredictability. We can not tell you in advance what river section we will be paddling the day of your reservation.
The Most Exciting Ducky trips require a minimum of 8 people.
Waivers are required for all participants.
Let us know about any food allergies or dietary restrictions prior to your arrival at ACE
Be sure to leave the jewelry, watches, and any other valuables behind. Your trip leader will secure your car keys in a safe place. Items are easily lost on the river!
