Lower Gauley Take-Out

The Lower Gauley Take-Out at Swiss serves as the standard take-out point for the 13. 6-mile Lower Gauley River run, featuring a public parking lot with the option to pay for private parking that eliminates several miles of flat-water paddling.

This access point is essential for paddlers running the Lower Gauley section, which offers Class III-IV whitewater and is accessible year-round at various water levels, though most popular during Gauley Season (Labor Day through Bridge Day).
