Full description

Weekday Potomac Whitewater Tubing offers an engaging way to experience the Potomac River's Class II-III rapids. This unguided trip is designed for those seeking adventure during their week, requiring participants to be proficient swimmers and physically fit to navigate the river's challenges independently. The journey provides not only an adrenaline rush but also a chance to enjoy some of the most scenic views in the country, including the historic Harpers Ferry National Park and the merging points of the Potomac and Shenandoah Rivers.

The experience is set against the backdrop of three states, offering unique perspectives of West Virginia, Virginia, and Maryland. To ensure the preservation of this beautiful natural setting, the trip enforces a strict policy on trash, allowing only soft, collapsible coolers or dry bags that can be securely attached to tubes. Weekday trips mean fewer crowds, allowing for a more personal experience on the water and the opportunity for additional runs as time permits. After the excitement of the river, participants have the option to relax and refuel with snacks and beverages available for purchase, complementing the day's outdoor adventure.
