At NOC, we're lucky to be situated in the middle of one of this planet's most beautiful natural playgrounds in the Nantahala National Forest in far western North Carolina. While we tend to find ourselves drawn to the rivers, we love the many other natural features, as well. NOC offers guided and unguided mountain biking, hiking, lake tours, fly fishing, Alpine Tower climbing, rafting combined with the Great Smoky Mountains Railroad. No matter which activity you choose, the adventure never ends!
