The Upper Lehigh Gorge is a trip that will make you regret you didn’t start rafting sooner! Hickory Run State Park, abundant with wildlife, surrounds the river. Sometimes it is tricky finding time to enjoy the scenery because you are so focused on the awesome Class II and III rapids.
Exploring the Lehigh Gorge is a great way to spend your day! The enthusiasm you feel while whitewater rafting 1,000 feet below the exquisite Gorge rim cannot adequately be described with words. You must experience it for yourself. Pocono Whitewater is only 1.5 hours from Philadelphia and two hours from New York City. This action-packed adventure is an easy drive from just about anywhere.
