Seven Islands Directions
Seven Islands Wildlife Refuge is a 360 acre Knox County park about 8.5
miles east of Knoxville which includes the Kelly Bend peninsula along the
French Broad River.

From I-40, take Exit 402 - Midway Rd. Turn south onto Midway Rd. This is
a right turn if coming from Knoxville, left if coming from points east.
Continue on Midway for 2 miles where you will turn left onto Maples Rd. (note:
at the one mile point, Midway bears left). Watch for the green refuge signs. At
the end of Maples (~ 1 mile), turn right onto Kodak Rd. After about a quarter
mile, turn left onto Kelly Lane, which takes you right to the parking area
(coordinates N W ). Just before the parking lot is a left turn to a boat launch
area. This is also a part of the refuge, but the area is rarely birded.
