Free Planned Activities at South Cumberland

Keli from LaVergne emailed me today: Hello, I would like to attend one of the up coming hikes (to Stone Door) and wanted to know if there was a need to register or if there was any additional information that I might need. This will be my first visit to the Park. Thanks!!

Good question Keli and hooray on your first visit to South Cumberland.

Planned activities at South Cumberland do not require registration. It is important to show up on time!

There are a couple of exceptions to this. The rappelling program offered every few months requires registration and the canoeing programs offered during warm weather often require registration. We do our best to make sure this is clearly stated on the activities page.

If you sign up for our email newsletter we will advise you each time new activities go online. Join the Friends and help support the Park.

Best wishes,

Ron Castle

    Is there anyway to get a schedule in advance of when rappelling will be offered? I am very interested in trying it, but like most people I need a lot of lead time to make sure I can get the time scheduled.

    Thanks!

    Hi, Ken,

    You did not send me your email address and your Blogger profile is not public so there is no way for me to answer you directly.

    If you will sign up for Friends of South Cumberland email news then I will notify you the next time the rappelling program is available.

    Cheers,

    Ron Castle
