Top 10 Things to do in Tennessee

Are you planning a trip and have not made up your mind where to visit? Well, Tennessee is the perfect travel destination.  With diverse natural landscapes of aquatic and grassland habitats, Tennessee has a lot of things that you can see and activities you can do with the whole family.

Here are the top 10 things to do Tennessee you might want to visit on your trip:

Explore The Seven Islands State Birding Park

This 416-acre park has more than eight miles of rolling hills, beautiful trails, and a scenic view of the smoky mountains. The park’s naturally diverse landscape of water and grassland habitat makes it a premier birding destination. It is interesting to note that over 190 bird species can be seen in the park. If you are a paddler, there is canoeing that leads to the French border river.

Visit The Bakers Bluff Trail

Located right off Natchez Trace Parkway, this is a fantastic place to pause and see some of Tennessee’s scenic parts on the parkway stretch. If you visit during fall and spring, you will be lucky to see the colors of the trees transform the landscape beautifully. On the trail, there are amazing picnic areas with benches, and you can rest while enjoying your surroundings.

 Visit the CouchVille lake

Located in the long hunter state park, this perfect destination for fishing, especially at the start of the trail, hiking and canoeing are available for those willing to use rental boats or canoes to explore the area. Common birds sighted in the area are blue heron, hooded merganser, and osprey among others.

Explore the meads quarry lake

The sparkling blue water, which is up to 100m in depth and surrounded by tall rock cliffs, is breathtaking. This is ideal for kayaking, fishing, and photography, and if you like to soak in the sun from the water, swimming will be a great activity.

A visit to Margaret falls

With a dramatic fan-shaped 60-foot drop, this is a popular waterfall trail in Tennessee. You will find it easy to hike the first 5 miles on the closed forest service road. The rest of the trail comprises a dry creek, waterfall, and streams that provide a chance to cool off after the long hike to the falls.

Visit Narrows Of the Harpeth

If you are looking to visit one of the oldest artificial tunnels in the U.S., the Narrows of the Harpeth trail is the place to be. Here, you can rent a canoe from local outfitters if you want to have a breathtaking view of the Harpeth River. Another activity you can do is fishing.

Experience the Appalachian trail

Extending from Maine to Georgia, the Appalachian Trail is the longest hiking-only footpath world over. Nicknamed A.T, the Appalachian trail is truly a natural spectacle, passing through 8 national forests and 6 systems of parks. When hiking, you are most likely to meet wildlife such as moose, deer, coyotes, raccoons, bobcats, and woodchucks.

Hike Big Creek To Mouse Creek Falls

It’s an excellent trail with beautiful waterfalls,  the 6.4-kilometer creek located at Hartford has heavy traffic. Since it is accessible throughout the year, the trail is primarily used for hiking, camping, horse riding, and photography.

Venture Into Foster Falls

This is a spectacle with a beautiful 60-foot waterfall that plunges into a pool. The falls are part of the large south Cumberland state park. If you want to enjoy nice views from the lookout point hiking, this is an amazing experience.

Gatlinburg Park Sky-Lift

A visit to Gatlinburg sky bridge means you get to experience North America’s longest pedestrian suspension bridge. Here, people visit, as they get to enjoy a bird’s view of the beautiful Smoky Mountains and the Gatlinburg town.

As far as amazing places to visit in the U.S. are concerned, Tennessee is right at the top. From its diverse, breathtaking landscapes to natural habitats, it is a place to go if you want to visit beautiful places with plenty of activities to engage yourself in and enjoy.
