Picture yourself drifting below high limestone bluffs on the clear waters of
the Buffalo, enjoying the serenity of a day on the river, watching the wildlife,
stopping to swim and picnic, and counting the variety of trees and wildflowers
along the shore. It’s as easy as presenting yourself at our office on Highway 65
at Silver Hill. We take care of all you need. You just sit back and enjoy.
Buffalo River Outfitters is located on U.S. 65 at Silver Hill in the middle
river district of the Buffalo National River. Silver Hill is the location of the
Tyler Bend access, which is home of a Buffalo National River visitors’ center
and campground.
We rent canoes complete with paddles and personal flotation devices, provide
shuttle service in our bus or your vehicle, we have
rafts for rent, and will even shuttle your private canoes with ours if you call
ahead for reservations.
We offer trips ranging from a few hours to a multi day adventure.
Large groups are our specialty.
We offer float trips year round.
