The put-in location is a short drive from Athens. The scenic beauty of Polk County and the cool fresh water are reasons enough to come here and paddle. A good workout and just being out on the river for a while will have you coming back for more. 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. Whitewater rafting and kayaking spots in Tennessee are harder than the national norm, so if you're not from around here don't forget that the rivers in
