Winding Waterways - River Activities 



Come take a float down the Yadkin River and enjoy the beautiful scenery and peaceful surroundings. Bird and wildlife lovers will enjoy seeing animals like otters, herons, osprey and many more. Fishermen are likely to catch small mouth, large mouth, and catfish. The Yadkin River is the perfect place for beginners and experienced paddlers. We do however, advise beginners to travel with experienced paddlers to ensure a safe and relaxing day on the river.
