Enjoy a Peaceful Float on the Meramec River

Looking for a relaxing escape into nature? We suggest planning your float trip on a weekday for a calm and serene experience. While weekends bring energy and excitement to the river, weekdays offer a peaceful retreat where you can truly unwind.
​

Tranquil Waters – The upper Meramec River is a Class I river, meaning it's as calm as it gets—perfect for a gentle, stress-free float. Listen to the soothing sounds of flowing water, rustling leaves, and birdsongs as you drift downstream. Enjoy the sights of lush forests and diverse wildlife in a quieter setting. Whether you're seeking a solo retreat, a romantic getaway, or a relaxing day with friends, a weekday float offers the ideal way to connect with nature and recharge.
All our floats except the 3-mile float pass by the incredible Fishing Springs Cave, a favorite stop for many adventurers! A cool, refreshing spring flows from the cave’s mouth, making it the perfect spot to splash around and cool off on a hot summer day. Don’t forget to take in the stunning scenery—this hidden gem is a must-see along the river! Check out the videos below.

​We offer five different float lengths. All trips end back at our campground with exception of the 3-mile option. Below is a description of the floats we offer.
