About This Access Site
Church Hill City Park offers boat access to the Holston River, a major waterway in East Tennessee that drains a 3,642 square mile area. The Holston River at this location is a substantial stream classified as a major river (Stream Order 8), with an average flow of approximately 4,890 cubic feet per second and an average velocity of about 5 feet per second. Boaters should be prepared for moderate current conditions typical of a river of this size and gradient, which averages 2.5 feet per mile. The water elevation at this site ranges between 247 and 354 meters, reflecting the river's significant drop over its 137-mile length. This access point in Hawkins County provides an opportunity to explore a major Tennessee river system with established public access infrastructure.
