Rafting at Yosemite

The length of the rafting season changes from year to year and depends on river depth, water temperature and climate. A typical season begins the last weekend of May and ends in July.

Rentals
Rafts can be rented at the Curry Village^® Recreation Center. Rafts hold four adults and are equipped with paddles and the mandatory personal flotation devices. The per person fee covers one three-mile trip down the river, personal floatation devices for each person, two paddles and return trip by shuttle to the Curry Village Recreation Center. Call (209) 372-4FUN (4386) for more information.

Adults $26 

Children (12 years of age and younger) $16
Please note: Children under 50 lbs. are not permitted in rental rafts.  We are sorry, but we cannot make any exceptions to this rule.

Help Protect the Resource
In order to protect riparian (riverbank) resources, we encourage our rafters to disembark on sand or gravel bars. Swimmers should enter and exit the river on sandy beaches.

Please be sure to keep dispose of your trash in the containers provided at the end of your trip.
