Why choose Blue Ridge Outing Co.?

Why Blue Ridge Outing Co. for your rafting trip:

• You'll enjoy a great rafting trip focused on two things: fun and safety
• Make a Day of It at our six-acre Nantahala Rafting Center and Park. This unique park space is available for your use when you raft with us. There’s no need to rush off after the trip. There is no need to sandwich your rafting trip between two car rides. Spend more quality time with your group.
• Reward someone in your group with our Raft Hero program
• We've been leading whitewater rafting trips in the NC Mountains since 1988, over 20 years.
• You’ll love our staff. Great guides who undergo rigorous training, are friendly and courteous, will treat you with dignity and respect and will help you and your group have a great time on and off the river.
• You can also choose to raft the nearby Tuckaseigee River. No other outfitter offers you the option of these two rivers. The Tuck is milder and a great river to use inflatable kayaks (aka Duckys). You can even do a combo trip that includes both rivers. 
• Our Rafting Center and Park has hot showers and clean bathrooms
• Ample parking, including bus parking
• We are set-up to handle groups. Most groups we take are under 40 people, but we can easily handle up to 99 people in a group and can handle larger groups with a little extra planning.
• You choose from a variety of commercial grade whitewater and inflatable kayaks
• Choose a guide-assisted rafting trip, pay extra to guarantee a guide in each boat, or go down the river on your own with Self-Guided Rentals
• You raft in a beautiful mountain environment in the NC Smokies, the Nantahala National Forest, and the Nantahala Gorge.
