Rafting in the Smokies is the Real Deal!

ADVENTURING THE PIGEON RIVER SINCE 1978

Rafting in the Smokies was a pioneer outfitter on the Big Pigeon River in 1978. We even helped name the rapids back in those early days! Our goal then was to assemble a group of professional whitewater athletes to provide affordable fun on the river. That goal has never changed.

People First. Certified and Trained Guides. Family Friendly. Safety Focused. Environmental Stewards.

You want the best for your vacation in the Smokies, we know! All our rafting trips include certified and trained guides for your safety and comfort. Our guides love the great outdoors and are eager to share their knowledge and enthusiasm with you. Our office staff works together with our rafting and zipline guides to ensure your total experience is the best it can be – from the moment you contact us about a trip.
