White Water Rafting

White water outfitters offer a variety of water craft for white water sports. On the gentler stretches, visitors can take self-guided trips, but even novices can experience more thrilling rapids on a guided tour. Some of the rivers in east Tennessee are wild and free-flowing, while others are controlled by dams, ensuring more reliable water levels and flow.
