About
For those warm weather, low water Peshtigo days, Kosir’s Whitewater Rafting offers tubing on the Peshtigo River below the whitewater stretch. The trip starts upstream and goes for about 1 hour and 30 minutes down the river to the first boat landing. Our shuttle bus will pick you up there and bring you back to Kosir’s Peshtigo River Office & Campground. It is great for the people who want a more relaxed ride, and almost anyone can do it! Keep in mind this is on a river and there are rocks and current! We have whitewater life jackets available, but we suggest bringing your own if you have little ones! River tubing is not a guided activity.
