adventures for outdoor enthusiasts of northeast Tennessee and southwest
Virginia since 1946. Headquartered

Paddling |

Where there are
mountains, there are rivers and the southern Appalachians are no
different. TEHCC members
regularly paddle down some of the best runs in the eastern United States
like the Nolichucky, Watauga and French Broad Rivers. |
