The Tennessee RiverPark is the crown jewel of Hamilton County’s Park system. Beginning
at TVA’s Chickamauga Dam and stretching ten miles along the Tennessee River to downtown
Chattanooga, this linear park offers users opportunities to enjoy a variety of activities and learning experiences.
The Riverwalk itself is an eight to ten foot wide, landscaped and lighted concrete
trail leading to parks and breath-taking views along the river. It is designed for
use by both walkers and bicycle riders.
