Tennessee Riverwalk

Tennessee Riverwalk

The Tennessee Riverwalk is a 13-mile riverside path which parallels the Tennessee River from the Chickamauga Dam to downtown Chattanooga. It is part of the Tennessee Riverpark System featuring the Tennessee Riverpark, Coolidge Park, Renaissance Park, Ross's Landing, and the Walnut Street Bridge.

The Riverwalk is a mix of paved pathways, boardwalks and bridges along the river, through marshland, and over creeks. Restroom facilities and drinking fountains are conveniently spaced along the path.

Nine brightly colored quarter-inch-thick stainless steel silhouettes mark each milestone along the Riverwalk, including a bird watcher, bluegrass musician, bikers, a man in a wheelchair and another strolling, a jogging father and daughter and a family group.
