2026 French Broad River Paddle Trip

The French Broad River Paddle Trip returns this spring as a collaboration between MountainTrue, Headwaters Outfitters, and Food for Adventures for an unforgettable 3-day float down the river in Transylvania County.

During this 32-mile trip, you’ll experience a beautiful section of river, learn about local stewardship, eat tasty food and drink local beer, camp under the stars, meet new friends, and come away with a new appreciation for this amazing place.

Registration includes boats (if you need), meals, drinks (including local beer!), campsites, shuttle, and a variety of entertainment. Guests will need to bring their own personal items and camping gear.

Proceeds will be split between the organizations.
