About This Access Site
The Take Out on Paine Creek in Rhea County, Tennessee serves as a whitewater take-out point for paddlers finishing their run down the creek. Located at coordinates 35.52730200, -85.02300300, this access site provides an exit point for kayakers and canoeists navigating the whitewater sections upstream. The site's designation as a take-out suggests it is positioned at a logical endpoint for paddlers completing their journey on Paine Creek. Given its classification as a whitewater take-out rather than a launch point, this location is primarily used for egress and equipment retrieval rather than initial water entry.
