Chattanooga Riverwalk

The Chattanooga Riverwalk is a 13.5-kilometre paved path that follows the Tennessee River, connecting various parks and attractions along the river’s edge. Opened in the late 1980s, it showcases the scenic beauty of the region, with views of the river, cliffs, and city skyline, making it a critical part of the city's outdoor scene. Walk or bike the trail to enjoy the diverse landscapes, botanical gardens, and access to places like Coolidge Park and the Tennessee Aquarium. Early mornings or late afternoons offer the best light for photography and a quieter experience. A cool breeze sometimes comes off the river, enhancing the atmosphere.
