Beginner (Class I)The Chestatee River was once home to the Cherokee. When gold-hungry settlers came, they were forced west of the river, then marched on the infamous Trail of Tears. After the gold-rush, the river was returned to nature, once again. Today, a float along the rivers quiet beauty is a pleasant break from the frantic pace of everyday life. The trip downstream from our Outpost is our most popular trip, especially for first time canoers and kayakers, families and large groups. There are several fun but gentle rapids, great scenery and good fishing. Something for everyone! | |||||||
