    Tennessee State Parks officials announced two new accessible paddling launches, one at Pickwick Landing State Park and the second at Fall Creek Falls State Park, as part of National Safe Boating Week.

    The new accessible paddling launches bring the number of Tennessee State Parks with the launches to 10.

    Locally, other Tennessee State Parks with Accessible Launches includes...David Crockett State Park in Lawrenceburg.

    Accessible paddling launches help make paddling more accessible for people with disabilities, including those in wheelchairs or with limited mobility. Each launch is fitted with features that make entering and exiting a kayak, canoe, or stand-up paddleboard easier.
