Discover the thrill of California’s best whitewater with OARS, a trusted outfitter running trips on the state’s most legendary rivers since 1969. Single- and multi-day adventures on the Tuolumne River near Yosemite National Park offer an unforgettable journey through stunning wilderness, with world-class guides and hospitality. Recognized by National Geographic Adventure as “The Best River & Sea Outfitter on Earth” and a top pick by Outside magazine, OARS is among the most trusted names in the travel industry.
The Wild & Scenic Tuolumne River spills from the highlands of Yosemite National Park through one of California’s most spectacular whitewater canyons. With 18 miles of nearly continuous Class IV rapids and 15 unforgettable named drops — including Ram’s Head, Clavey Falls, and Gray’s Grindstone — it’s California’s premier whitewater rafting experience. An easy drive from San Francisco, Sacramento, and Lake Tahoe, a Tuolumne trip with OARS pairs perfectly with a Yosemite vacation. Wine on the River departures are also available.
