Book one of our many exciting adventures today, choosing among a wide array of kayaking, rafting, rock climbing, tubing, and standup paddleboarding adventures! Activities take place on the wild and scenic Kern River, Isabella Lake, or the Sequoia National Forest, which is home to some of the finest climbing areas in the Southern Sierra. We also have several beginner, intermediate and advanced level skill options to choose from.

Cancellations:
You may cancel 45 or more days before your Sierra South trip date and receive a full refund less a $25 processing fee per person. Cancellations made 44 days or fewer before trip date are non-refundable. If you must cancel, please try to find a friend to take your space. All trips go rain or shine. However, we reserve the right to alter or cancel a trip/class due to high- or low-water conditions, other such uncontrollable situations, or insufficient reservations. Only in the case of cancelled trips are trip fees refundable. Upon approval by our main office, refunds will be sent via mail. Refunds cannot be granted by guides, nor can refunds be given if you leave a trip or class early for any reason. Sierra South is not liable for other costs incurred in association with a cancelled trip. We suggest trip insurance such as Travelguard.com to cover any unexpected situations.

Rental Cancelation Policy:
Rentals must be made at least 72 hours prior to trip. No refunds will be made for cancellations less than 72 hours prior to trip. Liability waivers and a rental waiver must be filled out in the store prior to taking your rental. A credit card is required to have on file for security deposit to cover any loss.

The Combo, 1/2 Day Upper Kern, Full Day Upper Kern and The Forks trips all require a minimum of 6 guests. All kayaking classes require a minimum of 4 students.
