| In the heart of the Nantahala
National Forest, the Nantahala River is
a family friendly, nationally recognized river of recreation. The
most popular in the Southeast, it is one of the oldest rivers in the
world and gets its name from an Indian word meaning, “Land of
the noonday sun”. It is a Class II-III dam-controlled river
pulling its water from the bottom of Nantahala Lake.
The water is released from a dam about 15 miles upstream and pulled
from approximately 250 feet in depth, and released daily. Since the
water does not see sunlight until its release, it stays cool year
around. The pristine, crystal-clear mountain water then runs its course
through the Nantahala River emptying into Fontana
Lake. |

| March through
October, your NC Whitewater Rafting
Adventure begins at the Adventurous Fast Rivers Rafting
outpost on the banks of the Nantahala River, in the
Nantahala Gorge, 14 ½ miles West of Bryson City, North Carolina
on Highway 74. After checking in at the store counter, you’ll
get fully equipped, receive personal instruction, and be shuttled
7 miles upstream to the put-in where your white-water fun will begin. |

|
On
the area’s most scenic terrain, you will experience over 20
named rapids, including “Quarry”, “Whirlpool”,
and “Lesser Wesser”. There are plenty of waves to crash
through and several calm water opportunities to simply enjoy the
natural beauty and wonders of the Nantahala River
and the Great Smoky Mountains when on a Nantahala
River Rafting Adventure! |
