Whitewater Tubing

Montgomery Whitewater’s massive, recirculating river system is divided into two channels. Our Creek and Competition Channels include class II-IV whitewater activities.

Whitewater tubing at Montgomery Whitewater is a fast-paced, hands-on, self-guided adventure activity where participants navigate a controlled whitewater course in a specially designed inflatable tube. Unlike traditional river tubing, this experience includes waves, currents, obstacles, and quick turns, requiring active participation and movement. Whitewater tubing is not a lazy river experience. Participants should be prepared for active movement and a fully immersive whitewater experience.

Riders steer using their hands as they travel through our channel system, encountering waves, currents, and obstacles along the way. Whitewater tubing is a great way to experience the energy of the course in a seated, individual ride format.

Experience our whitewater channels at reduced water levels with Low Flow Whitewater Tubing—a more approachable way to enjoy moving water. While this self-led activity features slower rapids, participants should still expect a high-energy, hands-on whitewater experience. Whether you're trying it for the first time or just looking for something different, Low Flow Tubing is a great introduction to whitewater adventures.

Whitewater tubes are single rider only.

*Participants ages 8–11 must have a parent in a separate tube on the water.

Open to the Competition and Creek Channel.
WARNING: Continuous class II+ rapids will be encountered. The ability to swim is mandatory for this activity as there is no guide in your boat. There is a high probability that you will have to swim in moving whitewater multiple times. This is not a lazy river experience.
