    My first Clarksville Greenway experience was a delightful buffet of multi-sensations: the sounds of the birds in the trees, the falling of the leaves on the trail, the aroma of the forest, and the music of the wind through the woods. I was very grateful for my lovely experience there.

    Bike path, running path, walking path, rollerblading path, hiking path - this is it! It is fully paved, so true hiking aficionados might not get their fix. But the rest of us outdoor junkies will find something to love. The Greenway is fully shaded, has lots of birds, furry critters and deer, and is very doable in terms of distance in either direction from the trailhead on Pollard Road. Just don't get stuck here during a wild thunderstorm like my sister and I did a couple of weeks ago. That was whole other kind of outdoor adventure entirely.

    Love the Greenway for family walks. It's beautiful and very clean. Highly recommend if you are looking for a nice walk while the weather is nice. We'll be doing a picnic soon!

    One of my favorite parks in Clarksville. When you get to the main parking area (which was recently expanded and provides ample parking for the busy summer days!) there are two paths you can choose. One path is very hilly and honestly a bit challenging, I've tried to ride it on my bike and wound up having to walk up the hills! The other path is flat the entire way, and much better suited to a leisurely family stroll. The paved path is large enough for people to simultaneously walk, jog, run, bike, skate, scooter, or whatever else you'd like to do to get around. I love going in the early mornings before it is too busy. I've seen Turkey and deer on the path, and plenty of cats. The flat path takes you over a cute bridge that covers a ravine. Perfect place for photos and hanging around and observing the trees below. There are bikes that can be rented here, however I would not recommend them. The baskets up front are clumsy and riding the bikes was more hazardous than fun. Better to bring your own bicycle if you have one!

    I visited in March, when it's not at its greenest, but this is still a breathtakingly beautiful trail. Flat in some spots with some vicious hills in others, there's something for everyone.

    I love walking here! So much shade and so pretty!!! It's peaceful enough to clear you mind. Everyone is nice. I love when people bring there animals cause I get to see all the cute puppers! I recommend walking on the trail on the left if it's your first visit. But if you want a challenge take trail two on the right just warning there are hills. And I mean HILLS!!

    Great place for a stroll with the family. Can't wait to see the greenway in full display and full of life in warmer weather.

    This place is awesome! It's so beautiful and relaxing. In the entrance you can rent bikes. You have to sides to pick to hike. One I believe is 2 miles, the other is 2.5 and so on. Grab some good shoes, plenty of water and start off with your relaxing adventure. There are benches that swing, tables for picnic and doggy poop stations with disposable bags. Pet friendly. If you are lucky, you will find hidden painted rocks :) we will be back soon!

    A nice long path! It's not overly crowded. People are respectful and keep their dogs leashed for the most part.

This hidden gem…read morein Montgomery Bell State Park is packed with history, and it's one of the coolest spots I've explored. Built in the early 1800s, this tunnel was carved by hand to transport iron ore for a thriving industry. But what makes it even more special is the story behind it--enslaved people worked here, and their efforts helped shape the future of Tennessee. It's crazy to think that something so important is tucked away in the middle of the woods, just waiting to be discovered! https://www.tiktok.com/@reessroots/video/7535575693854297374?is_from_webapp=1&sender_device=pc&web_id=7352687494821037610 The tunnel is almost 300 feet long, and standing inside it feels like stepping back in time. You can almost hear the echoes of the past! Most people are out there hitting all the usual tourist spots, but places like Montgomery Bell Tunnel are the ones that actually make you feel something. If you're into history, adventure, or just exploring off the beaten path, this is definitely the place to be. Skip the crowded tourist traps and head to Montgomery Bell Tunnel for some real history! Trust me, you'll be talking about it long after you leave. #HiddenGems #HistoryUncovered #ExploreTennessee

This parking lot is smaller, but we were surprised to find a spot easily. When we left around 10:45, there was a line of about 6 cars waiting, though cars seemed to move through fairly quickly. There is a nice bathroom at the top of the parking lot. From this entrance, you can also access the trail along the lake, though strollers and dogs are not allowed on that trail. We chose the lower paved trail instead (part of the mulch trail loop). It's wide -- almost road-sized -- and newly paved the entire way. It took about 15 minutes to reach the lake, and there's plenty more paved trail beyond that. We saw frogs, ducks, turtles, deer, an owl, and even a bald eagle. My kids stayed engaged the whole time. The trail was flat and easy for stroller pushing, and my older kids rode scooters without any issues. There were lots of families, dogs, and walkers out, but it never felt overcrowded. Overall, this is a great near-the-city option for getting young kids into nature without dealing with steep terrain. The other entrance off Granny White has the visitor center and a bit more parking.

    Fort Defiance (formerly also known as Fort Sevier & Fort Bruce)…read more We loved the little walking path that was here. It shows some of the original earthworks. Museum was very informative. Clarksville, TN in the 1860's was a vital communication/transportation center for the Confederacy. It was a major producer of tobacco and agricultural goods but became an important source of iron (its local foundries producing cannon, artillery shells and musket balls for the Confederate army early in the war). Clarksville's location at the confluence of the Cumberland and Red Rivers made it a strategic point. The Confederates in preparing for the city's defense constructed Fort Sevier on a hill that commands the two rivers. On February 19, 1862, Union gunboats came up the river from Fort Donelson and reported the fort displayed a white flag and was left deserted. The Union took over the fort and enlarged it so that it would control traffic on the Hopkinsville (Kentucky) Pike. After the Emancipation Proclamation in January 1863, Clarksville became a Federal recruitment center for the induction of free blacks and former slaves into the Union service.

If so inclined they have a long walking path down to the river ( beware the path back is uphill). The fort itself is not much to see given it is just earthen walls. Nice views to downtown c-ville.
