The Nantahala is Western
North Carolina’s most scenic
river for whitewater rafting in the
Smokies — eight miles of rugged
mountain beauty interrupted by twenty
stretches of Class II rapids, beginning with “Patton’s Run” and ending with the Class III beast, “Lesser Wesser.” While the “Nanny” is a river to be respected, it is not fearsome. Its rapids provide training for Olympic kayakers and thrills for paddlers from age 7 to 70 alike.
