There are quite a few hidden treasures in the Smoky Mountains. Big Creek Expeditions offers family fun with whitewater rafting trips. At the end of the day you may even be greated with a pleasant rainbow just above the mountain skyline.

We even have our own mascot, so to speak. Junior is our resident cat who ensures we are awake and ready to go early in the morning for an exciting day of rafting.
