Burgess Falls Paddle

With a guide from our friends at Cumberland Kayak & Adventure Company, this easy paddle is perfect for beginners and experienced paddlers alike. After an easy 2-mile paddle, our group will have an hour to explore the falls, take in the sights, and go for a swim!

This activity is easy to moderate. The out and back route is 4.5 miles total on flat water. Paddlers should wear appropriate clothing for the weather. Please bring snacks and plenty of water!

If you have your own kayak or paddleboard, we’ll be meeting at Cane Hollow Recreation Area at 10:45am CT.

If you need to rent a kayak for the event, Cumberland Kayak is offering discounted rentals at https://www.cumberlandkayakadventure.com/tenngreen.

Please bring a lifejacket (lifejackets will be provided with rentals), water shoes for walking around near the waterfall, water, sunscreen, hat, and sunglasses. Also, consider bringing lunch and/or snacks to enjoy at the base of the falls.

Meet at the Cane Hollow Recreation Area, at the end of Cane Hollow Road, Sparta, TN, 38583
