A rugged, white water river, flowing northward through deep canyons, the New River is among the oldest rivers on the continent.

This unit of the National Park System encompasses over 70,000 acres of land along the New River between the towns of Hinton and Fayetteville. The park and surrounding area are rich in cultural and natural history, with an abundance of scenic and recreational opportunities.
