About This Activity
Description
No previous whitewater experience is needed for this trip, which is designed for those wanting to explore the easier rapids stretch of the James River, from Pony Pasture to Reedy Creek in Richmond on "user friendly" sit-on-top kayaks. This is a great way to get a feeling for whitewater paddling without the rigors of being inside a true whitewater kayak. Swimming ability is required. Rental includes kayak and all equipment ($10 rental fee). Maximum weight of 235 lbs due to equipment limitations.
Youth ages 11-13 must be accompanied by an actively participating adult.
It is suggested that you have some sort of previous paddling experience.
Location
JRPS - Pony Pasture at James River Park System
