Downriver Canoe Company – Your Next Great River Adventure!

Located in the stunning Shenandoah Valley, a short distance from Washington DC, the South Fork of the Shenandoah is a flowing mountain river long recognized as one of the premier canoeing rivers in the East.

The river flows north through the Shenandoah Valley with Shenandoah National Park to the East and George Washington National Forest to the West.

The normally crystal clear water winds its way through surprisingly remote terrain while passing over a solid rock bottom creating many interesting riffles and pools, with some beginning white water (class II), making it an ideal river for novice and experienced canoeists alike. Fishing is superb.
