Watauga Scenic Area

Popular places to visit

This image was created on a slightly warmer day at a popular swimming area right outside of the North Carolina border and barely inside of Tennessee at Watauga Lake. The child in the image is placed within the yellow pipe border that is placed on the beach for people who decide to go swimming to have a sense of boundary on depth of the water and something to rest on if they get tired while in the water. #appalachianechoes
