This growing annual festival celebrates the Nolichucky River's exceptional recreational value with kayak and canoe races, guided float trips, environmental education booths, and family outdoor activities along one of East Tennessee's most scenic river corridors. The Nolichucky Gorge downstream is nationally known for Class IV whitewater rafting, and the festival showcases the broader river ecosystem. Local food vendors, live Appalachian music, and guided nature walks round out the event. A community celebration of the natural resource that defines the heart of Greene County.
