Virginia whitewater outfitter

| |
The wonderful Henrico County scenery and the sparkling of the sunlight on the water beats anything. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Virginia tend to be more forgiving than the national average, so if you're not from around here don't forget that rivers in this state are not as hard as elsewhere. Getting some good exercise and just being out on the river for a while have a lot of people coming here. No shortage of good hotels, but |
if you don’t have reservations you might end up sleeping in your car. The starting location is a short drive from Richmond. The campgrounds here at Rivercity Rafting are pretty good.
