The Loveable Lost Swamp

Join Blues City Kayaks for "The Loveable Lost Swamp" tour!

The Wolf River Conservancy says this section of the Wolf River is a 9+ on a scale of 1 to 10, and we whole heartedly agree! They say, "The Lost Swamp Trail begins with a narrow water passage between two trees into a large old growth cypress forest...The sometimes narrow trail makes numerous zigzags and sharp turns through large forests, two large swamps and grass-lined channels into areas where vast spatterdock fields thrive." It truly is a beautiful section of the Wolf River!

This tour is not for everyone. Again, according to the Wolf River Conservancy, "The Wolf may be a “class one” river but don’t let this deceive you; though there are no rough whitewater paddling conditions, other factors must be considered. One must be able to make sharp turns around trees, though meandering channels, and through thick submerged vegetation and lily fields. The Wolf River becomes increasingly difficult as water levels increase. Paddlers must be committed to paddle the entire six miles through to Moscow, Tennessee before entering this trail system. Always take extra precautions when paddling the Wolf River, especially when entering this area. We recommend plenty of water, appropriate clothing (no cotton) plus an extra set of clothing in a dry bag." Take plenty of food and water!
