Swiss Lower Gauley Take-out
Swiss Lower Gauley Take-out
Swiss is the primary public take-out for the Lower Gauley River, located at the end of a 13. 6-mile Class III-IV whitewater run.
A public parking field is available at the take-out, with an option to pay for private parking upstream that reduces the flat-water paddle by several miles.
The take-out is situated within the Gauley River National Recreation Area and is especially busy during fall Gauley Season (Labor Day weekend through Bridge Day).
