Spring Rafting - Big South Fork

Book Now!
Stay with us!

Big south fork canyon trip

Picture
This ½ day trip through the canyon section of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area is a great introduction to whitewater rafting. You will scarcely find the time to admire the beauty of the canyon as you travel the first mile of nearly continuous Class III rapids. Things slow down a bit after that, but don′t get too complacent, there are plenty of rapids to distract you from the scenery. The trip runs in the afternoon and meets near Oneida, TN.

Unfortunately the Canyon Trip will be unvailable for the 2025 season due to bridge issues on the access road.
​---------------------------------------------------------

Due to this, we may be opening our Cumberland below the falls trips earlier, click here for info on that trip.


Pricing: 
  • $109/person for ages 13+
  • $99/ person for ages 7 to 12
Minimum age: 7 (water conditions permitting)

More Information:
  • Half-day afternoon trip (does not include lunch)
  • Family/Beginner Trip (Class III)
  • Meets at Leatherwood Ford

Big South Fork Gorge trip

Whitewater Rafting on the Big South Fork River
This full day 10.4 mile Class III/IV raft trip flows through the beautiful wilderness of NE Tennessee in the heart of the Big South Fork National River and Recreation Area. The trip meets near Oneida, TN, but the real action begins after the confluence of the Clear Fork and the New river. A number of Class III rapids get you 'warmed up' for the "BIG THREE" -- Double Falls, Washing Machine and The Ell -- all Class IV rapids within 100 yards from each other. In addition to the "BIG THREE", there are many more Class III rapids to whet your appetite (and your raft). After a river-side lunch, the trip continues through the Big South Fork Canyon. 

Pricing:
  • $159/person
Minimum age: 13

More Information:
  • All-day, includes lunch
  • Class IV, intermediate trip
  • Meets at Leatherwood Ford
