Take Out

The take-out at Devil's Breakfast Table can only be accessed from the east (river-right). The bridge has been condemned by the state so avoid being routed there from the west, Crossville, and Otter Creek Road. Come in from Hebbertsburg Road.

Park head-in, to make room for other paddlers, fishermen, and a variety of area user groups. This area is only open between sunrise and sunset hours, and is squarely within Catoosa Wildlife Management Area, a TN state run area with lots of rules. This area is NOT accessible during the wildlife rest period, which begins February 1st of every year and ends the last Friday of March every year. During this time a long paddle to Nemo, or a longer shuttle around to Obed Junction is required.

The Cumberland Trail is accessed across the old bridge and up the road about 150 yards, to a faint trailhead on the left side. This trail does in fact wind all the way back to the put-in road, making for one of the best self-shuttles in the state.
