Kayaking has become one of the most popular water sports - both as a competitive extreme outdoor adventure sport for pro's and a recreational sport for the man on the street. Paddling along a tranquil river while watching how the sun rises or sets, is potent food for the soul. The array of rivers in and around Nashville makes this area one of the best kayaking destinations in the world. For the best Kayak trips Nashville has it all!

Acclaimed as one of the best river towns in the US, Nashville and surrounding areas boast a river for every reason and every season. Whether you just want a gentle family cruise along a river to fish or watch the wildlife, or an intense action-packed whitewater rafting adventure, the rivers of Tennessee are guaranteed to give you an inspiring experience.

Nashville has been acclaimed as one of the best river towns in America. It is thus small wonder that recreational kayaking has become one of the most popular water sports in the area. It is a great form of outdoor exercise and allows one to socialize in breathtaking locations. There is no better way to enjoy the abundant wildlife and scenic beauty of this region than from the vantage point of a boat or kayak.

Another option for people who want to enjoy the natural beauty of the environment is guided excursions and day trips, that include paddling instruction by American Canoe Association certified guides. These guided group trips also include canoe or kayak rental, all the necessary equipment as well as a convenient shuttle service back to your vehicle. Customized trips for up to 20 people can be arranged.

A day paddle on one of the beautiful rivers in Middle Tennessee is akin to a revitalizing holiday. Kayaking is a wonderful form of outdoor exercise and investing in a boat and gear guarantees you years of inexpensive fun. It is also a great way to meet new friends. You can glide across glass-like water while you try to hook some fish, watch the water birds, or shoot the rapids.

The waterways in and around Nashville each has a life of its own and distinct experiences to offer. For those who want to enjoy the wildlife, the Blue Heron cruise down the Cumberland River or the Cumberland River cruises out of Lebanon is a must. For an equally scenic ride, the Harpeth River is another option.

The 125 mile Harpeth River offers some of the most beautiful sightseeing trips. The best way to appreciate the true majesty of the cliffs is by looking up to them from a boat or kayak. The river and shores teem with wildlife such as waterfowl, fish, Great blue heron, whitetail deer and king fisher and one should have binoculars, cameras and fishing rods at hand.

The opportunities for boating, floating and kayaking along these beautiful rivers are countless. A guidebook describing 37 different paddling trips in the area is a good investment for prospective paddlers.
