World class whitewater & a world class adventure that focuses on you is what we are all about. No more feeling like just a number. Our rafting trips are personalized to meet each groups specific needs and adventure goals. The Menominee River is our favorite place on earth & we want it to be yours too.

The Menominee River is one of the wildest and most scenic rivers in the Upper Midwest, and whitewater rafting in Piers Gorge with our friends at Northwoods Adventures is consistently referred to as a world-class whitewater experience.

The volume of the Menominee River rapids boasts characteristics similar to those found on the Colorado River. Late in the summer, when other rivers are low and some may be even un-runable, the dam-released Menominee River will continue to produce a high volume of whitewater and outstanding rafting experiences all the way from our put-in in Wisconsin to our take-out in Michigan.

Due to the class III and IV rapids on the Menominee, we run our 8-10 person rafts with a guide in every boat.

Our journey begins in Niagara, WI, where the river flows next to granite bluff walls of 100 or more feet. On the trip, we’ll guide you past these rugged rock bluffs and through breath-taking scenery. After this beautiful flat water section the river quickly descends into the roaring waters of Piers Gorge.

Piers Gorge is the deepest whitewater gorge in the Midwest and has large flowing western style rapids, most notably the thrilling 10+ foot drop on Mischicot Falls to start off the ride.
