Whitewater Rafting & Kayaking Clarke Outdoors West Cornwall There?s good rafting all along the Housatonic River, and Clarke Outdoors in Cornwall can help you enjoy it safely. This outfit has it all, renting canoes, rafts, kayaks and the hybrid sit-yak. Call in advance to reserve your vessel of choice, though you could get lucky on day-of rentals. For kayaking, Clarke hauls you and your stuff upriver in a van, then fetches you some ten miles down the Housatonic. For whitewater rafting at Bulls Bridge Gorge, you must be at least 16 years old (and spirited). Price varies according to vessel, starting at $30 per person; $47-$52 for tandem vessels; instruction and guided tours available.
