The Chamberlain Falls Run on The North Fork American is the most advanced trip we offer. This river is a natural flowing river without upstream dams that relies on snowmelt high in the Sierras.

California River Rafting on 3 Forks of The American River!

	South Fork American River The South Fork of the American River Originates at the Pacific Crest near South Lake Tahoe, California. It then plunges down the western slope of the Sierra Nevada Mountain Range towards Sacramento. Class II and III rapids make this a perfect trip for anyone looking for an exciting whitewater trip.
	Middle Fork American River The Middle Fork is the most remote of the Three Forks of the American River. With reliable water releases, it flows all Summer long providing exciting Class IV action.
	North Fork American River The North Fork is the only free flowing fork of The American River making it the best choice for advanced spring-time rafting in California. Our Class IV trips start out with a short warm-up section to get the paddle teams working together with the guides. The big thrills come fast as the boats round the first corner and enter into Chamberlain’s Gorge.
	Trout Fishing California River Adventures offers action packed fishing trips that combine big whitewater and the opportunity to catch and release the trout of a lifetime! We take 14’ self bailing rafts equipped with rowing frames and room for 2 anglers, (1 bow, 1 stern)...
