RAFT THE TRUCKEE RIVER
The Original Lake Tahoe Rafting Outfitter
We’re located on River Road/Highway 89 in the heart of Tahoe City, California less than 60 minutes south of Reno. Our signature raft excursions consist of a leisurely, self-guided, five-mile float down the Truckee River. Get ready to cruise through serene waters featuring picturesque mountain views and lively little rapids, punctuated here and there by swimming holes and sand bars.
Boasting nothing more than a gentle Class I ripple, this Truckee River rafting journey is perfect for guests of all ages and experience levels. Soak in the sun and trail your fingers through these tranquil waters that can be navigated by almost any kind of boat, from kayaks to inflatable rafts. Take a break at one of the many picnic spots along the banks or take a swim in the river’s refreshing swimming holes.
We happily welcome dogs and encourage you to bring lunch and drinks (please no Styrofoam or glass!). We’re the ONLY rafting concession that exits directly onto the River Ranch Patio, where you can enjoy a delicious outdoor lunch after your river float. We also have an onsite convenience store where you can purchase essentials you may need for your trip, including (but not limited to) food, snacks, beverages (including beer), and sunscreen.
This relaxing adventure takes 2-3 hours to complete. We have convenient parking right on site and door-to-door service. Not only does our friendly staff put you in a boat to start your adventure, but at the end of the day, they help you exit your boat, retrieve all your belongings, and ensure you have a great rest of your day.
