While camping at Thunder Rock Campground in Benton Tennessee we visited the Ocoee Whitewater Center located on the Ocoee Scenic Byway (US64) between Cleveland and Ducktown, Tennessee. 

The 1.9 mile Bear Paw Loop Trail is part of the Tanasi Trail system and begins at the Ocoee Whirtewater Center. The loop overlooks the most famous rapids of the Ocoee River.

The Old Copper road Trail is 5.6 miles in and out located near the city of Copperhill. This trail was formerly used to transport copper by wagon from Ducktown to Cleveland before the arrival of the railroad from Blue Ridge

The Rhododendron Trail is a short trail that follows the river downstream with sections built on wood walkways above the Ocoee River.
