Have you ever floated your worries away down a pristine river, surrounded by lush forests and clear blue skies? If not, it’s time to grab your swimsuit! Whether you’re a thrill-seeker or a chill-seeker, Loafers Glory and NC Outdoor Adventures have you covered.
An Idyllic Drift
The rivers that run along the Blue Ridge Mountains offer tubing experiences that are as relaxing as they are picturesque. The tubing trips usually begin on the North Toe River, where the water gently nudges you along. Imagine drifting downstream with the sun warming your skin and the gentle sounds of nature all around. It’s the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle, and ideal for families or anyone looking to unwind.
The trip typically lasts around 2-3 hours, giving you plenty of time to bask in the beauty of your surroundings. The best part? You don’t need to be an expert to enjoy it – just sit back, relax, and let the current do the work!

A waterproof bag is your best friend for essentials like sunscreen and a phone.
Waterproof phone cases are available to rent during your river trip.
Cooler floats are also available for rent and are a fun way to bring drinks and snacks along on your float.
Wear water shoes or sandals with a good grip to navigate rocky spots.
