Ready for a whitewater adventure the whole family can enjoy? Join us
on a rafting adventure down the scenic Watauga River. We've been rafting
there for 23 years, and it's just as fun summer after summer! |
We've got everything covered from gear to professional whitewater guides
to photos of your family to a real home cooked lunch, straight from April's
kitchen. |
 |
The Watauga River is dam-controlled, which means that the water level
is great from spring to fall, guaranteed! For a little extra adventure,
ride rodeo at the biggest rapid, Anaconda, or reserve a torrent (a sit
on top kayak, no experience necessary) to take down with the rafters in
your group when you make your reservation. |
 |
 |
We suggest calling in advance for reservations. Thursday, Friday and
Saturday are our busiest days, and July and August our busiest months,
so be sure to call us @ 1-800-789-3343 or locally at (828) 898-9550 to
ask any questions and make a reservation! |
Our season runs from Memorial Day weekend to Labor Day weekend, and we raft Monday - Saturday, as the dam doesn't release on Sunday! |
