Lehigh River - Hickory Run Group Campground
Organized Group Tent Camping at Hickory Run State Park , , Albrightsville, PA, 18210

Event Type

The Lehigh…. Our classic class 2. Beautiful, great beginner run with plenty of play to entertain the more experienced. Where would you rather be on a nice summer day?

Saturday will be a double release and Sunday will be a release and a quarter. Pushier rapids, much better surfing, longer but not quite as bumpy swims.

Saturday we’ll likely do the 12 mile Rock to Glen trip, taking time to play and there’s lots of good surf at 1600 cfs.

Saturday Rafting and long run (White to Glen 20 mile with less time to play) trip is listed separately

We’re camping at Hickory Run Group campsites and have a site reserved for Friday and Saturday nights.

This is Lehigh Riverfest weekend. It should be a lot of fun with lots of paddlers and bands.

Food will be pot luck unless someone volunteers to coordinate. Contact us to volunteer or learn more.

Adult beverages are technically prohibited so plan on being discreet (like drinking from a mug). Final pro-tip. PA has weird beer laws. Plan ahead or plan on paying bar prices in White Haven.

All paddlers are expected to help with shuttle. The Lehigh has longer shuttles Paddlers in the past have ‘accidentally’ arrived late or ‘suddenly’ needed to leave early.
Failure to help with shuttle, unless cleared with the coordinator beforehand, is grounds for not being allowed to join the trip and even not being allowed to participate in club trips in the future.
Shuttling may include a request that you leave your camping gear at the site so you have room in your vehicle.
