We will be Open May 1, 2021

Welcome to our upcoming season! When 2020 unfolded, we were all dealt with many challenges on how to navigate with Covid affecting every facet of life. For Riversport, our concern was the safety of everyone involved with our instructional and rental programs. We created a plan to allow our camps to continue and kept smaller individual groups separated safely even during transportation. “Healthy in, and healthy out” was our motto.

Moving forward, it was refreshing to see the increase of participation within all areas of outdoor recreation. Even as state’s begin to open up and relax operational limitations, Riversport is still adhering to our local and state guideline according to the CDC. As more individuals and age brackets continue to vaccinate, we will still strive to create a safe environment for all of our guest. Riversport will continue to recommend social distancing when masks cannot be worn. Masks will still be required during our transportation and shuttle services when distancing is not a option.

Thank you for your understanding, and we look forward to another great Summer of creating a sense of normalcy while on the water during these Covid times.

Thank you from Riversport’s Staff and Family

History of Riversport

Originally known as River Paths in the late 1970’s, the operations moved across the river and evolved into Riversport during the early 1980’s. Since the mid 80’s, Riversport has been a family owned business and premier instructional paddling school with a retail store located along the majestic Youghiogheny River in Confluence, Pennsylvania. We have a knowledgeable staff of ACA certified instructors, young National Geographic sponsored paddlers, professional ski instructors, and teachers that provide safe and positive learning experiences on the water. Our rental location specializes in recreation on the Youghiogheny River and Lake with stable Kayaks, stable SUPs and relaxing Rafting trips.
