Enjoy the sights and sounds of the Great Smoky Mountains alongside the beautiful Nantahala River and Fontana Lake on our Nantahala Gorge excursion! Departing from Bryson City, this four-and-a-half-hour roundtrip excursion carries you 44 miles to the stunning Nantahala Gorge and back to our Bryson City depot.
 
Nantahala (nan-tuh-HAY-luh) Gorge Excursions depart west from Bryson City, first following Alarka Creek and Fontana Lake. The Fontana Trestle then takes you across the serene reservoir and into the beautiful Nantahala Gorge. Onboard dining is available in First Class; and Crown, Coach, and Gondola guests can pre-purchase a lunch to make this a unique dining experience. Arrive at our destination at the Nantahala Outdoor Center in the heart of the gorge for a one-hour layover where you can relax by the river, grab a beer or snack, and enjoy sightseeing!
