Penobscot Rafting, Safety First!
I have the utmost respect for the raft guides and crew at Northern Outdoors… Northern Outdoors is the only rafting company I would ever use.
We’ve been guiding whitewater rafting trips at Northern Outdoors in The Forks, Maine for over 40 years, but somehow Maine’s three rivers — the Kennebec River, the Dead River and the Penobscot River — are more fun every season! It must be you guys. Read your whitewater rafting trip reports, get some Maine travel tips, and meet our Registered Maine Whitewater Guides below. Post your rafting photos and other Maine adventures on Instagram with #NorthernOutdoors to be featured in our taproom.

I will definitely be back and would highly recommend the trip to all. A big thanks to Northern Outdoor and their staff
One of the best experiences I have ever had. Would definitely do it all over again.
My group has been fishing/rafting continuously since 1991 exclusively using Northern Outdoors including both the Kennebec and Penobscot Rivers.
We had an awesome time rafting the Penobscot River. Maine Guide Ted made the trip fun… shout out to the rescue kayaker…
We camped with Northern Outdoors for our first visit to Maine. It was a great base camp for the hiking and rafting that we did.
Whitewater rafting Maine’s Kennebec River, and hiking to Moxie Falls, one of New England’s highest waterfalls. Have fun outdoors no matter the weather with the right gear and the right people!

The river scene was beautiful, made me appreciate springtime in Maine. After the exhilarating whitewater run we hit up the brewery, excellent.
