Upper Kern Whitewater Rafting in Southern California
Taking a breather after some big rapids on the
Upper Kern River in Southern California.

Full Day

The ultimate in one-day getaways, the Class III-V Upper Kern is famous for its extreme gradient, big waves and tricky drops. Its powerful, fast-moving whitewater makes it possible to run several of the best rapids more than once. After a morning of rafting, we take a break for a deli style, riverside lunch. Right after lunch we’re back on the river for an afternoon of terrific whitewater. Prices for standard trips range from $148 - $178. The Class V Thunder Run is $225.

Half Day

Afternoon half-day trips depart daily April through July. The price is $105 midweek and $115 on weekends.

If you are feeling especially adventurous, you might be able to pilot your own Splasyhak on your second run. $35.00 plus 3% Visitor Fee for the standard Lickety; a double Lickety is only $50.00 plus 3% Visitor Fee.
