Bask beside the Watauga River and enjoy the view of the surrounding mountains while you take a step back in time with a luxury tent, comfy pillows, sheepskin rugs, vintage games, bluetooth speaker, and typewriter to “Thoreau” yourself into nature.
Choose your locally featured fare from a choice of charcuterie board with locally smoked sausages, cheeses, and bread,or choose from our locally crafted sandwich options. Each picnic will include trail mix from Edge of the World rafting company, hot tea, and crafted mocktails (bring your own airplane bottles, they allow alcohol as long as it is concealed and you follow all park protocol).
We also will provide you with a guidebook highlighting our recommended local businesses to support, such as, favorite coffee shops, rafting companies, bars,restaurants, bridal shops, flower farmers, airbnbs, and things you just shouldn’t miss.We will also highlight proper trail etiquette and Leave No Trace practices so we can help insure these wild places we love so much won’t be harmed by the mass migration of visitors to these mountains.
The Calloway picnics are hosted at the Valle Crucis Park. With every picnic, a donation will be made to support this non-profit.
