Experience the longest urban whitewater rafting course in the world on the Chattahoochee River in Columbus, Georgia. The RushSouth Whitewater Park course has been described as “Wild as Colorado and as Warm as Costa Rica.” Utilizing dam‑controlled water flow, Whitewater Express offers both classic and challenging rafting trips year‑round. Rapids range from Class I to Class V, ensuring an experience for every skill level. Gentle Class I–III rapids, paired with expert guides, create a family‑friendly adventure, while thrill‑seekers can tackle the heart‑pounding Class IV–V rapids. Certified instructors also offer lessons in kayaking, stand‑up paddleboarding, and fly fishing.

Below the rapids, gentle waters are perfect for tube rentals and lazy river‑style floating. Visitors looking to stay on land can enjoy bike rentals and ziplining. Cyclists of all ages and skill levels can rent bikes for a few hours or the entire day, while adventurous guests can zipline across the Chattahoochee River into Alabama, navigate treetop obstacle courses, and soar back into Georgia.

The fun doesn’t end after your raft trip. Explore 15 miles of the RiverWalk, visit attractions like the Columbus Coca‑Cola Space Science Center, the National Infantry Museum, and Oxbow Meadows, then unwind with dining and nightlife in beautiful Uptown Columbus—all just minutes away. Before heading home, stop by the Whitewater Express retail shop to pick up everything you need for a perfect day on the river.
