With trained guides ensuring safety and offering tips, even beginners will feel at ease as they zip from platform to platform.

After your zipping adventure, head over to Five Oaks Riding Stables for a more laid-back yet equally enjoyable experience. Here, you can connect with nature while exploring beautiful trails on horseback. The stables offer guided trail rides suitable for all ages and experience levels. Knowledgeable wranglers will match you with the perfect horse, ensuring that both novice riders and experienced equestrians have a fantastic time. The scenery is picturesque, providing a peaceful contrast to the adrenaline-filled zip lining.


If your looking to add a little bit of water fun to your package, then embark on an adrenaline-pumping journey with whitewater rafting, navigating the exciting rapids of the Pigeon River. This adventure promises an exhilarating ride as you paddle through class II and III rapids, guided by experienced rafting professionals who prioritize your safety while ensuring an unforgettable experience. The rush of the river, splashes of water, and laughter with friends make this an adventure to remember. It’s an opportunity to bond with your group while conquering the currents and enjoying the dynamic landscape around you.


After the thrills of whitewater rafting, unwind with a scenic float trip, designed to provide a tranquil and relaxing experience on the water. This portion of the package invites you to soak in the peaceful surroundings as you glide along calmer sections of the river. You’ll have the chance to appreciate the breathtaking views of the Smoky Mountains, listen to the gentle sounds of nature, and possibly spot local wildlife. The scenic float is perfect for individuals of all ages and experience levels, making it an ideal choice for families looking to enjoy a mix of fun and relaxation.


One of the best parts of this experience is the significant discounts available when you book the combination package. By choosing to do multiple activities together, you can save up to $33 off the total price compared to booking each activity separately. This not only makes it more affordable but also streamlines your planning. You'll have the convenience of scheduling both adventures in one go, maximizing your day of fun.
