Unicoi Recreation Image

Whether your idea of recreation is cutting a raft through churning whitewater, mountain biking through the Cherokee National Forest, enjoying a mild and beautiful night camping in Tennessee, strolling down the Appalachian Trail watching for migrant birds, hitting the links on an 18-hole golf course, or shopping for unique trinkets, the vast treasures of Unicoi County can excite even the most static spirit. Visitors and residents alike are tantalized by the wide array of opportunities for recreation, entertainment, exploration and adventure offered by The Valley Beautiful.

Johnson City, Tennessee, and other nearby areas offer even more recreational opportunities; from rock climbing in the Appalachian Mountains to go-carts to world-class trout fishing. And less than 30 miles away, visitors will find Bristol Motor Speedway, the country's most exciting sports venue.
