Top 7 travel tips in Fontana Lake

1. Swim in the lake

If you’ll be visiting the lake in the summer, you’ll definitely want to cool off from the heat with a refreshing dip in the lake. There are several public beach access points along Highway 28 where you can jump in and have a swim. These beach access points also typically have bathroom facilities and picnic areas as well.

2. Go on a whitewater rafting adventure

The nearby Nantahala River is a popular spot for whitewater rafting. If you’ve never tried it before, this is an excellent place to start. Paddle Inn Rafting Company is one of the best companies near the lake to go with because of their professional guides and quality rafts. Book a whitewater rafting tour for the whole family! Kayaking tours are also available.

3. Visit the Stecoah Valley Cultural Arts Center

Set in a restored 1920s stone schoolhouse, the Stecoah Valley Cultural Arts Center is home to a variety of art galleries, culinary classes, seasonal events, and a summer concert series. The center aims to preserve Southern Appalachian mountain culture through its many art, culture, and educational programs which are open to visitors and locals.

4. Hike Twentymile Trail

This long winding hike through the Great Smoky Mountain National Park is suitable for all skill levels. If you want to hike the entire thing it’s around 10 miles in and out, and it trails alongside Twentymile Creek for most of the way. If you just want to hike to the waterfall, it’s a much shorter journey. Several other trails, including the Appalachian Trail intersect with this one. Around 5 miles into the hike there is a fire tower where you can enjoy scenic views from the top.

5. Rent a boat

One of the best ways to explore Fontana Lake is by boat. If you don’t have your own it's no problem at all, you can easily rent one from a variety of boat rental companies around the lake. Almond Boat & RV Park has high-quality pontoon boats that you can rent for a day out on the water. Be sure to ask for a tube that you can tow behind the boat for added fun!

6. Discover the Tunnel To Nowhere

The Tunnel To Nowhere is set inside the nearby Great Smokey Mountain National Park. It’s a scenic drive to get there and there is ample parking. You can use the well-maintained walking path to reach the tunnel which goes through a peaceful forested area and then walk through the long tunnel. Be sure to go early in the day or bring a flashlight because there isn’t a lot of natural light inside the tunnel.

7. Find hidden treasures at JUNK ‘n’ Style

This charming antique shop is full of hidden treasures and is a small-town treasure in and of itself. The friendly owner is a delight and is more than happy to show you around.
