About

Clinch River Kayak offers thrilling kayaking experiences along the picturesque Clinch River, nestled in the heart of the Smoky Mountains. Our guided tours cater to all skill levels, prioritizing safety, environmental conservation, and personalized service for unforgettable outdoor adventures.

Located in Northeast Tennessee, our excursions start at the Miller Island Boat Ramp and end at the Peach Orchard Boat Ramp, conveniently close to Norris Dam. During your 3.5-mile journey, you will spend approximately 2.5 hours exploring the tranquil waters, with opportunities to admire nature and capture photos.

The Clinch River maintains a cool temperature of around 55 degrees, offering a refreshing experience even in the summer heat. With depths ranging from 6 inches to 8 feet, the river is ideal for kayaking, with flow rates regulated by Norris Dam releases.

Our Services include a guided kayak tour, led by an experienced swift water rescue certified guide. Essential safety briefings occur at the start of each tour, with all equipment provided, including kayaks, paddles, and life vests.

Reservation times include safety briefings, launch, landing, and transportation back to the Miller Island Boat Ramp. Please arrive promptly, as late arrivals forfeit their experience without a refund. Free parking is available at the launch site, with transportation back to your vehicle included in the tour cost.
