Situated on the New River in Jefferson, NC, Zaloo’s Canoes offers the finest canoe, kayak, and tube trips in the area.

We specialize in fun and exciting boat and tube trips for families, friends, and groups on one of the most historic and scenic North Carolina rivers, which also happens to be an American Heritage River. The New River is a great canoeing, kayaking, and tubing river for a child’s or beginner’s first river experience — pets love it too!

EXCITING AND FUN RIVER ADVENTURE
We did the 5-mile kayaking trip with my 4-year-old on a tandem with me and my wife on a single. Staff was very friendly and helpful and they are taking all precautions in dealing with “the germs.”
