Take on the Rapids with Whitewater Kayaking Classes

Time to kick your kayaking trips up a notch. Northeast PA Kayak School at the Lehighton Outdoor Center teaches whitewater kayaking lessons along the Lehigh River. No problem if you have zero experience. They specialize in beginner and intermediate-level classes.

Northeast PA Kayak School offers a flexible class schedule. The one-day class sessions will help first timers learn the basics on Beltzville Lake. Then it’s time to ride the rapids. The two-day class sessions take to the river every weekend from April through October. They also offer private lessons on weekdays and swiftwater rescue workshops.

The instructors will provide most of the gear, including kayaks, paddles, helmets, and life vests. You’ll want to bring your own water shoes, swimming gear, towel, and weather appropriate clothing.
