We’ve been guiding whitewater rafting trips at Northern Outdoors in The Forks, Maine for over 40 years, but somehow Maine’s three rivers — the Kennebec River, the Dead River and the Penobscot River — are more fun every season! It must be you guys. Read your whitewater rafting trip reports, get some Maine travel tips, and meet our Registered Maine Whitewater Guides below. Post your rafting photos and other Maine adventures on Instagram with #NorthernOutdoors to be featured in our taproom.

We camped with Northern Outdoors for our first visit to Maine. It was a great base camp for the hiking and rafting that we did.

My sister planned this whole trip for our family of 20 so I didn’t know much about it. Way beyond what I thought it could be. Awesome accommodations – we had a huge cabin that slept 16 of us. Great food when we ate there. Corn hole games, outdoor pool, trails to hike, hot tub…… awesome. The people were so personable – awesome customer service.
