How It Works

Book your trip in advance! Participants will meet at our outpost location in Elizabethton, TN. Our expert staff will outfit each participant and provide all the necessary gear. Our staff will then shuttle the group to and from the drop-off and pick-up locations along the Watauga River.

Requirements

Participants MUST BE at least 3 years old to participate, and an adult must accompany children on the trip.

Rafting participants must appropriately and securely fit in the life jackets provided. Our life jackets will accommodate a 52-inch chest.

What To Bring

Only bring along personal items that you are okay with potentially losing and getting wet. We strongly discourage bringing items like wallets, keys, jewelry, and cell phones on the river. We do recommend that you bring any medication you may need. Our guides will have a safe place to store medication. We also recommend bringing water bottles and sunscreen. Before you leave, you will be given a secure location to leave your vehicle keys. Valuables, dry clothing, and towels are recommended to be left in your car, which you can easily access at the end of your rafting adventure.

What To Wear

Prepare to get wet! We recommend wearing bathing suits and quick dry or synthetic clothing versus cotton. Cotton gets cold when wet and does not dry out quickly. Participants are required to wear closed-toed shoes or sandals with heel straps. NO FLIP FLOPS are allowed.
