In the wake of Hurricane Helene, MountainTrue is dedicated to addressing the urgent needs of our community.
What better way to spend a hot Friday afternoon than paddling on a beautiful mountain lake? For this 2-hour lake canoe outing, we will paddle Apalachia Lake which has very little private shoreline development and no commercial recreation facilities, making it very peaceful and perfect for paddling. Fishing and swimming are both options along the way, so bring your line if you’d like. No alcoholic beverages allowed and everyone must have a PFD accessible.
We will meet at the parking area/overlook at the TVA Hiwassee Dam Recreation Facility and drive to the put-in which has very limited parking.
We are able to provide a limited number of canoes or kayaks for an additional cost. Canoe/kayak rental includes a PFD and a paddle.
