Doe River Gorge consists of rugged mountain, scenic meadows, vertical rock cliffs, rushing whitewater rapids, and colorful flora. You’ll be captivated by the beauty of God’s spectacular creation.

In 1880, a railroad was constructed from Johnson City, TN to Cranberry, NC. A portion of this railroad has been restored through the Doe River Gorge and provides scenic excursion trips into the Gorge, as well as transportation to various sites where you can experience amazing wilderness adventures.

Doe River Gorge explodes with adventure. Rappel sheer cliffs, tube whitewater rapids, brave rope challenge courses, race down ziplines, and engage in a battle of paintball. Saddle up a horse and ride along a quiet mountain trail, challenge your friends to a game of octaball, or enjoy some incredibly fun activities at the action-packed lakefront. Doe River Gorge is a place where you can experience fun and laughter while creating lasting memories.

Doe River Gorge is enhanced with premier facilities and dedicated staff to enrich your experience. You can sleep in a riverfront cabin, an authentic railroad car, or a scenic mountain lodge. Our chef prepares great-tasting, well-balanced, and nutritious meals so that no one walks away from the table hungry. The hospitality staff at Doe River Gorge are eager to make your stay enjoyable and refreshing.
