The Upper Buffalo Floating Season

The floating season on the upper Buffalo is from March through July, depending on the water level. This section of the river is highly dependent upon local rainfall levels. The upper Buffalo also provides a unique opportunity to view the most spectacular scenery on the river.

River Levels

Please check the USGS website for current river levels. We will be on or around the river every day, so feel free to call us as well at 870-446-2644.
