About us
"I chose the road less travelled… Now I don’t know where I am."
"Never follow someone else's path unless you're in the woods and you're lost, and you see a path. By all means, you should follow that." - Ellen Degeneres
"Bring a compass. It's awkward when you have to eat your friends." - Unknown
So maybe we caught your interest?
Quick note then I’ll tell you what we’re about. We’ve never gotten lost or had to look at members as a food source. This is Chattanooga Outdoor Adventures not the Donner Party (some of you will get that).
We enjoys the outdoors in all forms. Events like Hiking, Rafting, Kayaking, and everything else.
But wait there’s more! I sound like a Ginsu knife commercial. Let’s not let any of the Donners have one of those.
We also plan other great activities in and around Chattanooga. Not just hiking. Musical events, food and wine festivals. A concert in a cave, you get the idea
It’s an open group and would love to get everyone involved and plan a lot of different things. Inclusion and fun are key.
Not just hiking, Adventures of all kinds

Fancher Falls Kayak and SUP trip
Cookeville Boat Dock, 13800 Cookeville Boatdock Road, Baxter, TN, USInside Joke with one of our members with the goat picture. Yes I still have my goat trophy you gave me. It is right next to my metal Goat Island Brewing company sign. The kind you see up on the walls of bars...
Wait before you accuse me of any larceny involving sign theft I am innocent, this time. I won it at some trivia thing. Goat Island has the best Blood Orange beer.
So I am posting three events today you get the short writeup.
Here is the short version
Not Carpooling for this one. My Daughter and I have our own paddle boards and we won't have room
This is a flat water paddle approximately 3 miles out and 3 miles back to Fancher falls. We meet at the Cookeville Boat dock.
An hour paddle out, an hour or so at the falls and then about an hour back.
You need your own paddle board or kayak. There is a local company if you want to rent, but it comes with restrictions. You can get all of the information here.
Cumberland Kayak Adventure/Fancher FallsThe rental is entirely up to you if you can make it work with our times.
Then since we have worked up an appetite and I love Mexican food we go into Cookeville and eat at
Cinco Amigos
