ZEN TUBING
ASHEVILLE, NC
Zen Tubing’s South Asheville outpost is located at 1648 Brevard Road in Arden, NC, just minutes from downtown Asheville, the North Carolina Arboretum, and the Blue Ridge Parkway. The location offers free parking, shuttle service, tube pickup, safety briefing, and easy access to a more natural-feeling section of the French Broad River. The setting is relaxed and outdoorsy, with a park-like atmosphere and a riverside picnic area that works well for families, groups, and private outings before or after a float.
The South Asheville location is especially nice for visitors who want a quieter river experience away from the busier downtown stretches. Guests can enjoy mountain scenery, native river landscape, and a smooth start-to-finish setup where they park once, shuttle upstream, and float back toward their vehicle. With cooler carriers, group options, gift cards, season passes, and discounts for certain guests, Zen Tubing has built a convenient river basecamp for summer fun in Asheville.
