What makes rafting with Peak Adventures different!
Looking to add a dash of adventure to your summer? The Bay Area and Sacramento region offer a myriad of outdoor activities, but none come close to the thrill and excitement of white water rafting on the South Fork of the American River. If you’re seeking an unforgettable experience, why not book a trip with Peak Adventures?
Why we raft on the Lower South Fork of the American River
The gem of the Sierra Nevada foothills
This classic section of the South Fork offers scenic views of the canyon walls with some wet and wild fun. Start on the milder class II section then paddle through class III rapids such as Fowler’s Rock, Satan’s Cesspool and Hospital Bar. A typical day on the gorge is approximately 3 to 4 hours on the water. Bring your friends along for an experience you won’t forget!
