Northern Waters offers family oriented Class II rafting float trips on the Androscoggin.

This is an easy fun level of rafting appropriate for younger ages from 7 years old (60 lbs. min.). The river is beautiful and many opportunities arise in the form of scenic beauty, wildlife and a lot of excitement. These are day trips. A guide will be along on all trips and in the boats with children under 13. Stronger groups may paddle their own rafts along with the guided rafts. Inflatable kayaks are often used on multiple runs.

ERROL RAPIDS
