Summer Gauley River Trips
"The Crown Jewel of Summer Whitewater" Ace is the only company that has the access points and fleets of different sizes to run the Gauley every day of the summer. You'll run the very same rapids that make the Fall Gauley Dam Release so special and they are even steeper and rockier at lower summertime flows. While others are running the milder rapids of the Summertime New River, the most adventurous folks can take on the challenge of the Summer Gauley. These trip are awesome!

This trip is run on several different sections of the Middle and Lower Gauley…depending on that day’s dam release and water level.  There are several sections that feature mild, beginner-friendly rapids…Class II and III…and incredible scenery.  The trip can be run with small rafts or our high-tech inflatable kayaks.  It’s the Gauley, but it’s not intimidating…and perfect for first-time paddlers.

Scouting the white water rapids on the Gauley River in West Virginia

Paddle the very same rapids that make the Fall Upper Gauley a world-class whitewater run!  At lower Summertime flows, these awesome and legendary drops like Iron Ring, Lost Paddle and Sweets Falls are even steeper and more technical than they are in the Fall.  Each day’s dam release dictates the boats we’ll be using…from 14-foot High Adventure rafts to smaller 3 to 5-person boats right down to inflatable kayaks.  There’s no better or more exciting Summertime paddling than the Summer Gauley…and it’s an ACE exclusive!

Combine two or three days of exciting Summer Gauley paddling with one or two nights of remote wilderness camping.  Because ACE is the only outfitter that runs the Gauley every day during the Spring and Summer, you can’t get this trip anywhere else.
