The Experience
2-3 hours on the water
Proudly family-owned and operated, Wild Bear Tubing Co. aims to provide a relaxed, welcoming experience for everyone who visits. Whether you’re spending the day with family, friends, or enjoying some time outdoors on your own, we hope you’ll feel right at home from the moment you arrive.
Tubing the Little Pigeon River is a simple way to slow down and enjoy the natural beauty of the Smokies. The river winds through scenic stretches of Sevierville, offering a mix of gentle currents, small rapids, and peaceful pools along the way.

As you float downstream, you’ll be surrounded by trees, wildlife, and the sounds of the river. It’s a chance to unplug for a few hours, enjoy the fresh mountain air, and take in a different view of East Tennessee.
Float times vary depending on river conditions and water levels, but most trips take approximately 2-3 hours. Guests enter the river directly from our property and are shuttled back to the outpost from the exit point at the end of their float.
No two days on the river are exactly the same, which is part of what keeps people coming back. Some come for the adventure, others for the scenery, and many simply for the opportunity to spend time together outdoors. Whatever brings you here, we’re glad to be a small part of your Smoky Mountain experience.
