Spring Rafting Trip through the Great Smoky Mountains

Spring Rafting Trip through the Great Smoky Mountains

Overview

Spring is a beautiful time in The Great Smoky Mountains. The vegetation returns, the buds bloom in the Smoky Mountains, and there’s no better way to experience the view than rafting down the mighty Upper Pigeon River.
Between Labor Day and Memorial Day we are no longer guaranteed dam release on the Pigeon River. This doesn’t mean we do not raft the river, it just means that we are rafting at natural river flows which can be unpredictable. You may discover the rush and excitement of class 3 and 4 rapids or you may enjoy a serene, peaceful scenic trip while rafting between the Great Smoky Mountains and Cherokee national forest. Just ask our staff what the river looks like that day, and we’ll let you know.

Amazing experience. Staff super friendly and accommodating. All the guides were very knowledgeable and funny and made sure we had an unforgettable time. It was a blessing to have L.J. as our raft guide. My teenagers had a blast :)

I took my twelve year old son rafting for the first time and he absolutely loved the experience! Our guide, Joshton was extremely knowledgeable and made sure we had an awesome time. He made sure my son and I both felt comfortable and confident in what we needed to do throughout the adventure and we laughed most of the way through the trip. The river was so beautiful and the rapids were so much fun. We can’t wait to come back!
