Reserve a Merced River Afternoon 1/2 Day Trip:

 
ONLY 1 HOUR AND 30 MINUTES FROM YOSEMITE VALLEY, our afternoon 1/2-day trips cover 11 miles, include parking, wetsuits/paddle jackets (if needed), and a round-trip bus shuttle. Meet at 1:30 pm sharp, and return to vehicles by 5:30 - 6:00 pm. Minimum age is 8-12 depending on water levels. No lunch is provided, so eat a hearty one before you meet us.  

LATER IN THE SEASON as water levels drop, we move our 1/2-day trips down to “the Gorge”, a 5-mile narrow, scenic section of the river from Briceburg to Railroad Flat. The water is warmer, the air temperature hot, and the lower water rapids are fun and technical. We stop at a calm area for swimming, and guests love jumping off “Jump Rock”. Because of the slower pace (offering fun, technical rapids…you still wear your life jacket and helmet!) and fun water play, guests have said this trip offered more family fun than our higher water trips. Minimum age is 7. NOTE: Due to lowering water levels, our last 1/2 day trip on the Merced river was Saturday, June 28. HOWEVER, we have trips available on the Tuolumne and American Rivers (dam controlled, with good water through the summer). Please call 209 532-6249 if you are interested in either of these trips.
