Thanks to a generous grant and contributions from our
board of directors RiverLink is excited to release the new
comprehensive French Broad River Paddle Trail enjoyment map and app -
13 interactive layers of information to help you identify and locate all the
services you will need to enjoy recreating in the French Broad
River watershed. We told our design team to make this a
"one stop" application for fun in the French
Broad River watershed.
Map/app layers include: camping, health &
wellness, local attractions, lodging, outfitters,
recreation, restaurants, cafes and breweries, river access, river gauge,
river hazards and transportation options--- all the things you will need to
plan your river trip - be it a day trip or a longer
overnight stay are on the map and the app. And the app
geo-locates you wherever you are in the watershed.
For apple users the app will be downloadable from ITunes in
April but all you android users can get it now at Google play or on the
RiverLink website NOW.
Along with the French Broad River Paddle Trail map and app we
invite you to see, learn and enjoy information at one of the 21 new kiosks we
have installed along the watershed that we hope will inspire you
about the flora, fauna, history, people and families who helped influence the
French Broad watershed.
