In North Conway, New Hampshire, there’s a stretch of the S**o River where bright blue tubes, kayaks, canoes, and even dogs in life jackets drift beneath the Conway Scenic Railroad. S**o River Tubing in Conway turns this classic White Mountains river day into an easy summer outing, with tubing, kayak, and canoe trips on the S**o depending on what kind of float your crew wants.

You can park at their base, get set up with your gear, and shuttle upriver. A few minutes later, you’re sliding into clear, shallow water with sandbars, swimming spots, forested banks, and that wonderful “we’re officially on river time now” feeling. It's a natural lazy river.

Tubing is the classic S**o experience: relaxed, social, and perfect for drifting with friends or family on a hot summer day. Kayaks give you a little more control if you want to paddle and explore. Canoes are a great option for families, extra gear, and dogs who would very much like to believe the entire river was arranged for their personal enjoyment.

And then there’s the train bridge.
Every so often, the Conway Scenic train rolls overhead while people float below, and the whole scene feels like peak New Hampshire summer: river water, mountain air, sandy feet, and a vintage train crossing above the S**o.

This is a real river, not a theme park ride, so conditions can change with weather and water levels. Some days are slow and shallow with lots of sandbar time; other days move faster and feel more active. That’s why it’s worth checking current conditions and choosing the trip that fits your group. If your idea of a perfect summer day is floating, swimming, paddling, beach-hopping, and letting the afternoon disappear on the water, this belongs on your North Conway list.

Save this for your White Mountains summer trip. 🌊🚂
