The Middle Yough (Middle Youghiogheny) Ohiopyle PA Class I-II
GUIDED MIDDLE YOUGH GUIDED TRIP: Between Confluence and Ohiopyle lies The Middle Yough,a step milder than the Lower Yough and appropriate for children as young as 5. It is fun, relaxing and beautiful as you float through Ohiopyle State Park. Class I-II means there are some ripples and a little splashy water, but no large
whitewater rapids. You can join a guided trip if you want to concentrate on fun and leave details (like lunch) to us. If you are uncertain about taking the kids on the river, we recommend doing so under the watchful eye of our professional guides. Swim, sun, relax and have a blast!
If you feel like taking it on your own, rental rafts, canoes and shredders are available. We highly recommend previous canoe experience before tackling the Middle Yough. There is enough current through the Class II areas that navigation takes some skill.
Pedal Paddle: The best of both worlds!! Bike the trail and paddle the river....read more...
