Located in the heart of beautiful Ohiopyle State Park, PA, the Laurel Highlands River Tours and Outdoor Center offers visitors a chance to experience all the extraordinary scenery of the park, whether by land or water. The Laurel Highlands River Tours are all fully guided trips and take passengers aboard down the middle, lower or upper Youghiogheny River or Cheat River!

 

One of the best things that the company offers is the whitewater rafting tours! In 1962, Laurel Highlands started offering guided whitewater rafting tours and now more than 50 years later and over a million river miles paddled, the company still gives visitors an experience unlike any other! For those looking for a calm and relaxing experience, take a Middle Yough tour. Passengers aboard will explore the picturesque Youghiogheny River valley!

 

Take the Lower Yough tour and enjoy the spontaneity and sheer fun of a run down the stream! If you are an adventure enthusiast, enjoy the largest uncontrolled watershed in the East, which also feeds the mighty Cheat Canyon! This section of the Cheat River is arguably the most challenging river run on the East Coast.

 

To top off all the tours listed is the Upper Yough tour! If you are looking for the extreme experience, take this thrilling tour. This tight river offers several drops, with sections falling more than 115 feet per mile! If you wish to experience this tour, it takes a special raft and guide. This difficult river is only for experienced rafters. Step up to the challenge and have an unforgettable experience!  To book your tour today, click here!

From zip lining to rock climbing, you are sure to find something that suits your skill level.
