It begins its course in Jackson County above Cullowhee at the confluence of Panthertown and Greenland creeks. It flows in a northwesterly direction into Swain County and through the center of Bryson City, North Carolina. The river passes around the Bryson City Island Park, where it then enters Fontana Lake and then the Little Tennessee River. The name Tuckasegee may be an anglicisation of the Cherokee language word daksiyi—[takhšiyi] in the local Cherokee variety—'Turtle Place.' The river is dotted with stone fishing weirs built by Native Americans; this practice may have preceded the Cherokee in the area. The weirs are most easily viewed when water levels are low.[2] Fishing, hiking and paddling are among the recreational opportunities along the river. It was the location used for the trainwreck / river escape scene in the movie "The Fugitive", starring Harrison Ford.{{Citation needed|date=October 2014}} References1. ^{{cite gnis|1016248|Tuckasegee River|2010-07-01}} {{JacksonCountyNC-geo-stub}}{{SwainCountyNC-geo-stub}}{{NorthCarolina-river-stub}}2. ^See Anne Frazier Rogers, "Fish weirs as part of the cultural landscape," Appalachian Cultural Resources Workshop Papers, National Park Service.
