Passing through the Tennessee River Gorge and along the shores of Chattanooga, Nickajack Lake is an all-in-one location for outdoor lovers and city-goers.
Chattanooga is known for its wide variety of attractions but it also houses useful facilities like the Chattanooga Airport and Erlanger Hospital.
Nickajack Lake starts at the Nickajack Dam and stretches 46 miles upstream to the Chickamauga Dam. The waters span 10,370 acres and boast 179 miles of shoreline.
Twenty-six miles of the lake pass through the steep walls of the Tennessee River Gorge, also known as the “Grand Canyon of Tennessee”. The 27,000-acre gorge was carved through Cumberland Mountain.
The area flourishes with wildlife, including bald eagles, osprey, deer, night herons, foxes, and more.
Nickajack is known for all things lake life. It is widely known as a sport fishing location, host to multiple annual fishing tournaments, and part of the National Bass Fishing Trail.
The lake is commonly traveled by pontoons, powerboats, jet skis, fishing boats, kayaks, canoes, and more. Its open stretches are perfect for water skiing, tubing, and wakeboarding.
Hiking and camping are popular activities on and around Nickajack Lake. The Prentice Cooper State Forest features hiking, biking, and offroading trails that lead to waterfalls, overlooks, and hollows.
Twice named Outside Magazine’s “Best Town Ever,” Chattanooga is a fun adventure for every member of the family and only 30 minutes from Nickajack Lake.
The “Scenic City” features attractions like the Tennessee Aquarium, Chattanooga Zoo, Lookout Mountain, Ruby Falls, Creative Discovery Museum, and many more.
The Smoky Mountain Alpine Coaster is a thrill ride that winds down a wooded hillside. The non-motorized carts allow for a smooth ride for singles and doubles.
Whether you are seeking a nature escape or a place to make memories with loved ones, Nickajack Lake has a place for you.
