×Lake Junaluska
Enter into the stunning beauty of fall in the Appalachian Mountains when you attend the 2021 Feast of Tabernacles in Lake Junaluska, North Carolina! The area offers many restaurants, coffee shops, microbreweries, shops and activities for all ages. Explore rivers and mountains by horseback, hike a scenic trail, enjoy a picnic by the lake while you fish or paddle the serene waters of Lake Junaluska in a canoe or kayak. The more adventurous may try an afternoon of whitewater rafting or ziplining! Most importantly, come to soak in the many beautiful views and peaceful surroundings to bring you back to the meaning of the Feast of Tabernacles every day.
