The average whitewater rafting or kayaking river tends to be a bit harder to master in this state than those in other states, so if you're not from around here don't forget that the rivers in this state are less manageable. The Hanging Limb to Highway 85 section of Obey River - East Fork is 10 miles long and is rated by American Whitewater as a class III-V+ section. The nature scenery of Tennessee and the water flowing gracefully down Obey River - East Fork make the trip here worthwhile. The Hanging Limb to Highway 85 section is one of many paddling
sections in this river system. If you hurry you can run this stretch in a day but why not make it an overnighter, so pack your camping stuff. The wild scenery of the Cumberland Plateau Mountains is great. Not too many hotels nearby, you'll have to drive a bit to get to one, but
you'd better reserve in advance because these hotels fill up quick. Whether you're whitewater rafting or kayaking there are lots of good spots for that around here. Getting some good exercise and just hanging out with mother nature are sure to keep you coming back for more. The starting point is not too far from Crossville, please print out a copy of the road map further down the page so you won’t get lost. There are campgrounds quite near the river where you can camp.
