Family-owned and operated since 1993, Smoky Mountain Outdoors (SMO) is the leading rafting company in the Region. Awarded TripAdvisor’s Certificate of Excellence year after year, SMO rafts the Pigeon River, only 45 minutes from Pigeon Forge.

Offering the longest whitewater trip on the Pigeon (age 8+) as well as a scenic float (age 3+), no experience is necessary. All equipment is provided, and your professional raft guide will share stories of the area while navigating the rapids.

The SMO rafting season is from March 1 to mid-October.
