Nolichucky Outdoor Learning Institute

Located on the banks of the beautiful Nolichucky River in the mountains of Northeast Tennessee, we are the region’s first comprehensive outdoor school offering courses and instruction for all ability levels in a variety of disciplines including kayak, canoe, water safety and rescue, wilderness medicine, survival, hiking, conservation and more.  We also offer special events such as riverside talks and opportunities to explore artistic expression through mediums such as outdoor painting, photography and pottery.  There’s something for everyone at the Nolichucky Outdoor Learning Institute!
