Do you have a Mom that loves the water? How about taking her on a Mother's Day Kayak Paddle?!

Celebrate Mother's Day with a kayak paddle around Fort Loudoun. Along the way we will enjoy beautiful scenery of Unicoi Mountains, trees, and perhaps waterfowl. We will also touch on the history of Fort Loudoun, Tennessee Valley Authority (TVA), and the importance of waterways in Tennessee.

The tour will depart from and end at the boat dock/kayak launch located next to the main parking lot of Fort Loudoun State Historic Park (338 Fort Loudoun Rd. Vonore, TN 37885). This paddle is rated easy.

Kayaks and kayak equipment are available for those who do not have their own; anyone with their own kayak and equipment is welcome to bring it. Cost for renting a kayak and equipment is $20 and anyone bringing their own equipment is $10. Space is limited to 9 so be sure to reserve your spot.

Bring water and dress for the weather. Also, be prepared for boat traffic, waves, and wind. More details and register HERE.
