Headwaters Outfitters

Fish, canoe, kayak or tube, with or without a guide, down a peaceful stretch of the French Broad River, one of the oldest rivers in the world.

Headwaters Outfitters has been providing mountain and river lovers outdoor adventures for more than 25 years. Located at the “forks of the river” where the North and West forks of the French Broad join, paddlers pass the entrance of the Middle and East forks a short way downstream — all forks originating from springs in the Blue Ridge Mountains.

One of the very best ways to experience the awe and beauty of the mountains with experienced guides.
