Kayak, canoe, raft, rock climb, mountain bike, or just enjoy the outdoors at U.S. National Whitewater Center, a recreation center adjacent to the Catawba River. This facility, which opened in 2006, features the world's largest recirculating artificial whitewater river. The river paths, designed by three-time Olympian Scott Shipley, are used as unofficial training grounds for whitewater slalom racing. However, the center has activities for people with every level of experience in outdoor activities, including classes and events/festivals year round. The center's main goal is to promote healthy, active lifestyles. Plan to see U.S. National Whitewater Center and other attractions that appeal to you using our Charlotte trip planner.

Had an amazing time here on a weekend. We were lucky to visit on the day they had the build your own boat event. It was packed and there was an amazing atmosphere. It was fun to watch the enthusiasm with which people cheered and the creativity and resourcefulness of the participants. I personally tried the mountain bike rental for the first time and enjoyed it. My friend tried the rafting and had a great time as well. They have a huge number of trails to explore and a wide range of activities (zip lining, rock climbing, rafting/ice skating) to choose from. Perfect spot to spend a day outdoors.

Wow this place is amazing and has many outdoor adventures you can try. I brought my Mountain Bike to ride the 50+ miles of trails and it definitely didn't disappoint. They also have rafting, kayaking, zip lines, walking, running trails and it's just a great place to bring your family for a day of outside adventures.
