What do you wear to the gorge?
What we do recommend are comfortable cotton or synthetic shirts for any day at The Gorge. Synthetic athletic shirts are always a great idea as they are quick drying for those hot summer days or an unexpected shower. For those colder days, we can’t say it enough-layers layers layers (keeping your trunk warm is key).
What do you wear to the Gauley river?
Here are the basics to begin your day:
- Bathing Suit- No cotton.
- Shorts- In a material that will dry quickly.
- Sandals or Tennis Shoes- You need something that is secure on your feet so you don’t lose it.
- Socks- Optional depending on weather.
- Sunscreen-Very important as you will be in sun all day.

A: Closed-toe athletic training shoes, running shoes, or water shoes are the best choice for most river rafting trips. Whitewater-specific shoes are nice—but not necessary for Timberline trips. In cold temperatures or on high-intensity sections of whitewater, neoprene booties with rugged soles are often worn.
