I've been down the mullberry several times now in my canoe. I live nearby so it is fairly convenient for me to go. It is one of my favorite rivers to canoe on, as long as the water level is high enough. I love the peae and tranquility of being on the river, but at the same time it iclose enough to civilization that it remains conveient and reasonably safe, even for inexperienced or young ones. I highly recommend it for anyone loking for a |
relaxing overnite trip. Says HEATH
Just went today 7/5/09. It rained like crazy this morning and the rapids were great. Easy enough for sit-on-top kayaks but still intense. Great place to go!!! Says Caleb Kelly

here are not easy. The wonderful Cullman/Blount County scenery and the playfulness of the water are in themselves reasons enough to come here to paddle. The nearby hotels are a bit away from the river, but do book a room
before you come because it is a very popular destination. You can enjoy this section more if you take your time, so why not pack your camping stuff too. The campgrounds here at Mulberry Fork are pretty good. A bit of exercise
and just being out on the river for a while are great attractions for lots of people. The Blountville Road to US Route 31 stretch is one of a few paddling stretches in this river system.
