The French Broad river spans 218 miles from Rosman, North Carolina through Asheville, and toward the state of Tennessee. Section 9 of the French Broad river starts approximately 45 minutes away from Asheville near Marshall, North Carolina and runs through the Pisgah National Forest. The majority of French Broad Section 9 flows through protected lands, and is beginner-friendly. Your guide will navigate you through approximately 5 miles of Section 9, where you will raft through class II and class III difficulty levels, and you may briefly encounter class IV drops depending on the time of year, and the amount of rainfall.

Anna explained the safety rules clearly and was friendly. Odell was our guide and we thought he was knowledgeable, charming, friendly and smart. Next time I will wear my phone in a waterproof case with lanyard and leave a bottle of water in the bus. There were a few opportunities to take pictures. The hour drive from landing to where we loaded would have been easier with a phone and a drink.

Everyone who worked there was really nice. Also met some cool people who we rafted with. Be sure to bring water shoes and a towel for after. Being another pair of clothes if you can

Anna was fantastic! She guided us down the river with ease and made the whole experience a blast. From the rapids to the scenery, everything was even more enjoyable thanks to her positive energy and great attitude. We had so much fun and would absolutely do it again. If you’re visiting Asheville, this is a must-do adventure! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

What a fantastic day. Our guide, who's name escapes me, was the Lead Rafting Guide. She was spectacular. Very patient, kind and fun!! Thank you for being so patient with me. And our bus driver, Helga, was the best! I can't tell you how much she helped me. And she was funny and plays great music 🎶. The rafting experience was so fun! So many rapids. Our guide expertly directed through all the big rocks. I wish I could have brought my camera but they warned me that it'll wind up at the bottom of the river. Thank you Asheville Adventure Co. I'd love to come back.
