Dead River Rafting - Penobscot Adventures

Dead River Rafting

Whitewater Rafting on the Dead River

The Dead River spring runoff and heavy water releases make for the best wild whitewater rafting adventure in New England. Cascade down 15 miles of almost continuous class II-V whitewater, in rapids like Spencer Rips, Hayden's Landing, Elephant Rock, the Mine Field and the infamous Poplar Falls, the longest continuous rapid in Maine. The ride is exhilarating. There are only a few release days available, and they quickly fill up, so make reservations early.

-Spring Release $89.00 per person
-Summer Release $69.00 per person

Sports Boats - White Water River Rafts
A sports boat is a 13-foot long raft, the smallest the State of Maine allows on the Dead River. These rafts are very responsive especially on lower water flows, so we can surf and play in the smaller rapids.

- Add $20.00 per person to price of regular trip.

Discounts are available for church groups, youth groups, boy scouts, corporate groups, families and friends.
