The French Broad Paddle Trail is a recreational watercraft trail created and operated by RiverLink and MountainTrue. The paddle trail facilitates the public access to and camping on over 140 miles of the French Broad River, from the headwaters in Rosman, North Carolina to Douglas Lake in Tennessee. RiverLink’s campsites are free. MountainTrue’s campsites require a small fee (www.frenchbroadpaddle.com). All campsites require a reservation by phone or web. Both websites have an on-line interactive map and downloadable app.
