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.
