The New River has reliable water flows all year round and having such a long season allows you to enjoy the Lower New River's different seasonal water levels. The early spring flows offer some of the largest volume whitewater rafting in North America. The summer months bring moderate water levels that are perfect for first-time whitewater rafters and West Virginia-style surfing. The brilliant colors of fall add yet another element to an outstanding whitewater rafting trip. The Lower New River has moderate to difficult whitewater (Class I-V) and averages a drop of 16 feet per mile.
