Outdoor Adventure!<br />
“If I could give 10 stars, I would!”<br />
—Judith G<br />
WELCOME TO THE AMERICAN RIVER, a legendary destination for whitewater rafting,<br />
camping and some of California’s top adventures. Winding through picturesque Gold Country, the<br />
American River offers one of the longest and most consistent rafting seasons in the country.<br />
Each stretch of river boasts fun and exciting floats through the wild- flower-studded canyons of<br />
the Sierra Foothills. Plus, the American River is easily accessible from the San Francisco Bay<br />
Area, Sacramento, and Lake Tahoe.<br />
