About Tennessee Riverpark

Tennessee Riverpark (the Chattanooga Riverwalk) is described as a scenic, well-maintained multi-use greenway along the Tennessee River. Reviewers praise clean restrooms, picnic areas, fishing piers, playgrounds, and river and city views, and say it works well for walking, biking, running, and skating. The main drawbacks are a construction-related trail closure and restroom limitations such as porta potties and no overnight access. Crowding is rarely mentioned and most reviews are highly positive.
