No amusement park ride can duplicate the granduer and natural wonder a wild river offers. We have a wide variety of trips perfect for beginners and experts a like.

NARR started the first Kayak School in West Virginia, offering customized clinics for any skill level or group size. We utilize our Adventure Lake and the New River for introductory clinics. On the New River there are calm pools and easy class I-II rapids for beginners and class III -V rapids for those ready to take the next step. Kayaking is a great sport to learn, it can take to places you never even thought of.

NEW! We also offer Stand Up Paddle Boards classes and adventures - the hotest growing water sport in the country.

Fishing opportunities are endless in West Virginia. Our 1,500-acre facility overs several lakes that we stock and allow guest to fish (catch and release only). You can fish on the banks of our beautiful rivers or we offer guided fishing trips that allows you to raft on the river and fish those special places regular fishermen can't access.

In addition to our 1,500-acre Adventure Park & Lake, NARR also offers several other on-site activities...

Zip Line Tours is located on the rim of the gorge offering thrilling rides and views no one else can.

Our on-site ATV Tours also allow you an unique perspective of the gorge. We have over 30 miles of private trails that can give you a river-to-rim experience that is exclusive at NARR.

Horseback Riding, Mud Obstacle Course, Rock Climbing, Paintball, Ropes Courses and more. All of these activities are located right on NARR’s property and are within walking distance to on-site lodging and parking. The Team Challenge Course can be enjoyed for the sheer fun of doing it or can be incorporated into experiential education and challenge programs. Tucked away into the forest on NARR’s property, low and high ropes courses are the setting for challenge by choice. These challenge courses introduce you to new ways to think and play. As well, paintball can be great team fun on its own or further developed into more meaningful play. We also have over 30 miles of private trails perfect for hiking and mountain biking.

Mountain-Based Activities

We use the mountainous terrain as the focal point to the activity. Half and full-day activities include ATV Tours, Hiking, Horseback Riding, Mountain Biking, and Rock Climbing. Mountain biking can be as rugged and challenging as you want or a leisurely cruise along the river on the old railroad track bed. Rock climbing tests your skills as you select your route up the rock face while rappelling is that feeling of jumping backwards off the edge, except you are harnessed in for protection. Old logging and mining trails do double duty as horseback trails with many wonderful overlooks of the river canyons. Similar trails are perfect for cruising through the forest on an All Terrain Vehicle. With such a variety of trails, the mountains make for some great hiking, too. All you need for hiking is the willingness to do so, a map, a few recommendations for our favorites, good shoes, food and water. The National Park Service has maps and hiking guides.
