Parks and outdoors in Nashville, TN

The outdoors here is greenways and hills rather than one central park, with the river running through the middle of it and the steeper ground to the west.

Worth knowing

  • The greenway system connects neighbourhoods and is the practical way to run or ride away from traffic.
  • Humidity is the limiting factor rather than temperature — morning is the comfortable window from June through August.
  • The larger parks west of the city are hilly enough to be a workout rather than a stroll.
