    Tips

    August 26, 2025

    Flowing alongside parts of the Benton MacKaye Trail, the Hiwassee River offers scenic views, peaceful riverbanks, and opportunities to refill water (always filter). It’s a refreshing spot to rest, enjoy the sound of the flowing water, watch local wildlife, and even fish if you like.
