About Hiwassee River

Located in Polk County, Tennessee

Across 147 miles, Hiwassee River is an expansive reservoir that offers scenic views, cool waters, and proximity to Tennessee’s best attractions. With Knoxville 88 miles Northeast and just 50 miles South, Hiwassee River has endless opportunities for adventure!

Life on the Water

Featuring rapids, gentle currents, and still water, the Hiwassee River is famous for its variety of water activities. During summer, tubing, rafting, and kayaking are the most popular pastimes. The rapids only get to classes I and II, so it is gentle enough to bring the kids along.

The middle section of the Hiwassee, passing through Charleston and Calhoun, is much like a lake. The calm waters are popular among boaters, water skiers, and anglers.

The Charleston Boat Ramp is convenient for putting in your watercraft of choice. Anglers can catch well-sized trout, bass, bluegill, and crappie. If relaxing is your thing, you can tan from a float or watch the action from the shore.

What's Nearby?

Chattanooga awaits on the Southern end of the Hiwassee River, offering plenty of places to shop, dine, and explore!
