California Rafting on The Tuolumne River is simply California's finest wilderness whitewater rafting trip! Located just outside Yosemite National Park, the Tuolumne river in 1984 was included in the National Wild and Scenic Rivers system, evidence of its very special qualities.

The Tuolumne (pronounced too-all-o-me) is a magical 18 mile corridor, boasting long, tantalizing class IV rapids, wondrous side creeks and wide, sandy beaches for camping. Unlike most of our other river trips, the Tuolumne river is not accessible by road during the entire trip. Thus, all necessary gear is taken with us on the rafts. Rapids such as Rams Head, Steamboat, Cabin, Hells Kitchen and the granddaddy of them all, Clavey Falls, will stir the blood of any rafter, veteran or novice.

Zephyr Whitewater, our partner company, is the largest whitewater rafting outfitter on the Tuolumne river.They have more trip launch dates, and guide more people down the Tuolumne than any other California whitewater rafting outfitter.
