Water Sports at Harlan County Lake!

Tubing on the Republican River

Fun on the Republican River!

The Republican River continues east below the dam and as water is released through the spillway each summer, the current is swift making inner tubing and canoeing popular!

Canoers and tubers either ride the rapids close to the dam, or travel as far down the river as Naponee, about 6 miles by river, or Franklin which is nearly 20 miles!

Hiking, Cycling and ATV Trails!

Have a great time on the trails near the lake!  A great trail for hiking is the "River's Edge" nature trail which lies within North Outlet Park and winds through the trees along the river bottom.

There is an All Terain Vehicle trail on 500 acres of land south of the lake.  A new addition is under construction that will redefine ATV riding!  Motor cycles are welcome on the trail!
