Sandhill Cranes
Details
Come join us for a day of paddling to check out the Sandhill Cranes at the Hiwassee Wildlife Refuge,
With up to 20,000 sandhill cranes returning to the area each year, you’re bound to be caught up in the spectacular display of the sandhill cranes, eagles, waterfowl, and more on the refuge.
Sit on tops and non-enclosed recreational kayaks are not recommended.
I recommend you bring a thermos with some type of warm beverage just to keep the inner core warm.
Lifejackets are required and must be worn while on the water.
This is about a 5 mile paddle and pretty much protected except the crossing of the Hiwassee River.
