Located about 40 minutes West of Gatlinburg, TN in the Great Smoky Mountains. If you look up the location on the map you'll see all the other rafting companies are right in the same area. You have the option of a upper and/or lower river package. The upper begins at the hydroelectric plant where the water is released and has more rapid water. The lower begins at their physical location and is much calmer. We chose to do the upper twice back to back. The second trip was more fun as the river had more time to rise from the release of water.

This was our first time whitewater rafting and we really enjoyed it. Our guide was very knowledgeable and his experience made our experience very enjoyable. In the video you will see two of our riders get tossed out of the raft. This is not common but can happen. Neither were injured and we all had a good laugh.
