Middle Ocoee River Rafting Trip
ADVENTURE PROVIDED BY Adventures Unlimited
FAQs
Do I need experience?
No! There is no experience necessary for rafting the Ocoee River. Each raft is led by a certified guide.
Since no experience is necessary, almost everyone can raft. Every raft is accompanied by a certified guide who conducts a safety orientation prior to the trip. All participants are expected to participate/paddle in the rafting adventure. The State of Tennessee requires all rafting guests on the Ocoee to be twelve years of age and older.
Is there a weight limit for rafting?
No. However, each guest must be in good health, have a chest size no larger than 56 inches to fit into the Type V PFD and be able to actively participate in the sport of whitewater rafting. If you have concerns, please have a discussion with your physician prior to your trip.
How long is the bus ride to the river?
We travel 17 miles East on Highway 64 to the put-in for the Classic Middle Trip.
Can we bring snacks and drinks on the raft?
No, this just ends up being litter in the river.
Do I have to know how to swim to raft?
No. No one can swim in the traditional fashion in the Ocoee River. Your raft guide will teach you how to swim on your back with your toes on the surface of the water and pointed downstream. It is similar to sitting in a recliner.
What happens if it's raining?
All of our trips go rain or shine.
Should I tip my guide?
Gratuities are appreciated but not expected.
Will I fall out?
Maybe. We cannot guarantee that you won’t fall out of the boat but if you listen to your safety speech and learn how to brace in the boat correctly, the odds of staying in the boat greatly increase.
