Whitewater Rafting Ohiopyle
Ohiopyle is one of the best places on the east coast for white water rafting and kayaking. The Lower Yough, runs through Ohiopyle State Park from Ohiopyle to Bruner Run (Class III). This section is the busiest whitewater trip east of the Mississippi, frequented by over 250,000 people each year. You can book a guided or unguided rafting trip. The rafting outfitter will help you choose the right equipment. Most of the Ohiopyle Rafting Outfitters also rent Bikes  Looking for Ohiopyle area events?  Check our events calendar!  We hope you enjoy your stay in Ohiopyle!

​Rafting areas in and around Ohiopyle 
  • The Top Yough, near Swallow Falls State Park in Maryland (Class IV-V)
  • The Upper Yough, from Sang Run to Friendsville, Maryland (Class IV-V)
  • The Middle Yough, from Confluence, Pa  to Ohiopyle (Class II).  The Middle Yough is
    11 miles of class I & II rapids which are great options for the beginning rafter / kayaker.
  • The Lower Yough, which runs through Ohiopyle State Park from Ohiopyle to Bruner Run. The Lower Yough is 7.5 miles of class III and IV white water.  The Lower Yough's rapids are easy enough for beginners but still challenging enough for experienced rafters.
  • Ohiopyle Falls in Ohiopyle State Park:  Only legal for kayakers and canoeists to run on one weekend a year (Class IV) during Over the Falls Race.
Locals Tip:  Never go alone and beware of Dimple Rock on the Lower Yough!  Dimple refers to both the Class III rapid by that name, as well as an undercut rock in the middle of the rapid.
