If you’re looking for an exhilarating way to experience the Ocoee River, Bigfoot Outfitters offers a variety of rafting trips to suit every level of adventurer. Whether you’re seeking a family-friendly float or a high-adrenaline whitewater challenge, there’s a trip for everyone. Let’s dive into the different types of rafting experiences available at Bigfoot Outfitters.

The Middle Ocoee: The Classic Whitewater Run

Known as one of the most popular whitewater trips in the country, the Middle Ocoee offers five miles of continuous class III and IV rapids. This action-packed trip features over 20 exciting rapids, including favorites like Grumpy’s, Broken Nose, and Table Saw. Perfect for first-time rafters and seasoned adventurers alike, the Middle Ocoee provides an unforgettable mix of thrills and scenic beauty.

The Upper Ocoee: Olympic-Level Adventure

For those looking to up the ante, the Upper Ocoee is the ultimate challenge. This section of the river gained fame as the site of the 1996 Olympic whitewater events. With powerful rapids like Humongous and Godzilla, this section provides an intense ride with technical maneuvers and heart-pounding excitement. This trip is suited for all levels and especially adventurous thrill-seekers ready to take on the Olympic course!

The Lower Ocoee: Scenic & Relaxing Float

For those looking for a more laid-back river experience, the Lower Ocoee offers a scenic and relaxing float trip. We offer both guided raft and tubing trips on the Lower Ocoee River. This stretch of the river features gentle currents, beautiful forested surroundings, and plenty of opportunities to spot local wildlife. Ideal for families, beginners, or anyone looking to soak in the natural beauty of the area, the Lower Ocoee trip is a great way to enjoy the water without the intense rapids. These trips are great for the entire family as the age requirement for the Lower Ocoee rafting trip is only three years old and for the tubing trip the requirement is only six years old. The age requirement for our whitewater rafting trips (the Middle, Upper, and Full river trip) is twelve years old. 

Full Ocoee River Trip: The Ultimate Experience

Can’t decide between the Middle and Upper Ocoee? Why not do both? The Full Ocoee trip combines both sections into a 10-mile adventure filled with back-to-back rapids, breathtaking scenery, and nonstop fun. This full-day experience includes a riverside lunch, allowing you to recharge before tackling the second half of the journey. If you’re looking for the ultimate whitewater experience, this is the trip for you.
