About This Access Site
Porters Creek Confluence Put In is a whitewater access point located on the Little Pigeon River at the Middle Prong confluence in Sevier County, Tennessee. This put-in serves as an entry point for paddlers looking to run whitewater sections of the Little Pigeon River system. The site is positioned at a confluence area, which can create interesting hydraulic features and current patterns that paddlers should be aware of before launching.

This access point is designed for whitewater kayakers and canoeists looking to paddle technical sections of the river. The confluence location means water conditions can vary depending on flow from both the main channel and the Middle Prong tributary. Paddlers should scout conditions and be prepared for moving water and potential obstacles typical of mountain stream environments in East Tennessee.
