Take a late-afternoon 1.25-mile tubing float from Forest Park
1-2 hours
Float the short trip from Forest Park to the River Road livery on a 1.25-mile tubing run in Noblesville. This late-afternoon option is used during low, slow water conditions and when other trips are at capacity.
River Road livery is private property and not a public access. Mixed groups of rented tubes and private tubes cannot land there, and private tubes will be turned away. Floating coolers are allowed only if they can be transported on the shuttle like a normal cooler.
Alter or cancel for a full refund by close of business (4pm EST) at least 2 days prior to the reservation date. Otherwise, reservations and payments are final and non-refundable. If the operator shuts down due to high water or persistent rains, they may issue Weather Vouchers (no refunds stated).
Yes. The reservation holder will receive a separate email or text notification to complete a waiver form, then you can send a unique link to each group member so everyone can sign before check-in.
No. Privately owned tubes are not allowed on these river tube trips, and mixed groups of rented tubes and private tubes cannot land at the River Road property. Private tubes will be turned away.
Yes, but only floating coolers that can be transported on the shuttle in the same manner as a normal cooler.
Most visitors have a blast on the White River, praising the beautiful scenery, clear water, and abundant wildlife along the route. The operation runs smoothly with friendly drivers and decent buses for shuttles. Many families return year after year, drawn by the solid combination of good exercise, fresh air, and natural surroundings. Both tubing and canoeing options attract crowds looking for outdoor fun. A few things to keep in mind: longer trips require carrying your boat at a portage point near the dam, which is unavoidable due to the river setup. At the end, you'll need to haul your own gear up from the bank. The bigger consideration is timing and crowd management. The river can get packed with large tubing groups, especially on popular days, which significantly changes the atmosphere from peaceful paddling to navigating around party crowds. If you're seeking a quiet nature experience, this might not be your best bet during peak times. The water levels can also run low during dry spells, so plan accordingly.
It was a great time and experience and I plan to go again and tell more ppl.
