Floating Vacations on Local Water

by | Jun 2022

Whether it’s relaxation or adventure you’re seeking, you don’t have to look far to find it. Middle Tennessee’s waterways will refresh and restore you.

A lazy float with nature’s soundtrack of birdsong and insect chatter will softly rock you. A bass or trout flopping at the end of your line will energize you in the morn- ing and fill your stomach in the evening. A hike will inform you of archaeological landmarks and artifacts while amazing you with the vistas and viewpoints. The crackle and pop from the firepit will punctuate the laughter and conversation of friends and family. The options in our area are endless. You can plan for a weekend or a week and never run out of things to do and see.

Plan to explore our waters and their surrounding areas. Take advantage of
the amenities offered by our state parks, including hiking trails, camping, fishing, floating, swimming, golfing, bird-watch- ing, and a year-round schedule of activities and events. Make exploration of your home state a summer tradition.
