Extending dozens of miles up the Clinch and Powell Rivers, the lake has ample shoreline with many opportunities for exploring the serene Tennessee Valley. Surrounded by state parks and huge wildlife areas (one of which includes a trail marked by Daniel Boone!), Norris Lake is a great place for both hunting and fishing (rock fish, walleye, and bass are plentiful) when the season is right.

Trek up some of the trails to find spectacular views of tree-covered bluffs. Or, if the mood strikes, rent a boat or jet-ski and get out onto the water how you really want. Located north of Knoxville, you'll be nearby to some of the greatest entertainment in the south.
