Much of the central region is composed of gentle plains, criss-crossed by a number of notable lakes and rivers, of which the largest are the Tennessee River and Guntersville Lake.The great outdoors certainly plays an important role in Alabama lifehunting, fishing, hiking, camping, cycling, climbing and rafting are all popular pastimes.
