Rivanna River Co.
Charlottesville’s paddling outfitter and guide service
Everything you need to enjoy the water
Kayaks, Canoes, SUPS, Tubes, Shuttles, Guides, and more
The river is calling… come out and play!
Kayak, Canoe, Standup Paddleboard, and Tubing trips just 5 minutes from Charlottesville’s Downtown Mall.
We connect locals and visitors of all experience levels with memorable adventures on the scenic Rivanna River.
We will be closed the first weekend of October as we outfit and guide a large school group on an overnight trip, but will reopen for Equipment Rentals and Out & Back Paddling on Saturdays and Sundays only for the rest of October. With the annual gear sale behind us, we are primarily able to rent out Tandem Kayaks and Canoes. You can reserve equipment online at any time by clicking the link above. Thank You!
