About Smoky Mountain River Rat

Since the early 1990s, River Rat Tubing has offered a unique way to enjoy the gorgeous scenery of the Smoky Mountains. Through the Little River, guests can go tubing or dial up the adventure with whitewater rafting.

Even better, there are different paths along the river available, so there's a course suitable for your skill level. Fun for the whole family; you'll need to make reservations to enjoy this fun attraction.

What to Try

We mentioned different courses because not everyone has the skills or desire to take on the most challenging routes. That's why we've provided a breakdown of where you need to go depending on your plans.

Outpost A (Main)

This is the main outpost and is both family and dog-friendly, meaning the entire group can enjoy floating down the river safely. The rapids are relaxing, and you'll enjoy prime access to swimming holes, which you can dive into. Keep in mind the minimum age for this course is two years old.

Outpost B

Are you ready for something more adventurous? Then outpost B is the route you want. You'll get to tub down adrenaline-fueled rapids and enjoy refreshing swimming holes along the way. With this route, any children riding need to be six years old or older. Also, dogs aren't allowed on this route.

Upper Pigeon Whitewater Rafting

Tubing is undoubtedly fun and adventurous, but if you want a real thrill, then whitewater rafting through the Upper Pigeon expedition is the adventure for you and your group. With this option, you'll enjoy some of the most exciting rapids while surrounded by the natural beauty of the Smokies. All riders must be eight years old or older.

Xtreme Upper Pigeon Adventure

Was the last option still not enough adventure for your group? Take things to the Xtreme with this option that guides you through five miles of river with class three and class four rapids. More importantly, you hit these rapids in the smaller X-boats, which means you enjoy a bigger splash throughout the adventure. The minimum age for this option is eight years old.

Lower Pigeon River Rafting

Sometimes you just want to enjoy the river in a relaxing way, or you've got little ones in your group. For those moments, the Lower Pigeon River rafting adventure is the perfect fit. This course still offers plenty of rapids to maintain the fun factor but remains safe for everyone three years old and older. Plus, there are refreshing swimming holes available when you need to cool off a little.
