East Bank Greenway park
East Bank Greenway
One of the main points of interest along the East Bank Greenway is the Cumberland Park. This 6.5-acre park features a playground, splash pad, climbing wall, and picnic areas. Visitors can also rent kayaks or paddleboards and explore the river. Another popular attraction is the Nissan Stadium, home to the Tennessee Titans football team. Visitors can take a tour of the stadium or attend a game during football season.
The East Bank Greenway is also steeped in history. The trail passes by the historic Fort Nashborough, which was built in 1779 and played a significant role in the early history of Nashville. Additionally, visitors can see the Tennessee State Capitol building, which was completed in 1859 and is still in use today.
The best time of year to visit the East Bank Greenway is in the spring or fall when the weather is mild. However, the trail is accessible year-round and can be enjoyed in any season. Overall, the East Bank Greenway is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Nashville or the state of Tennessee.
Park & land designation reference
A quick legend for the federal and state land categories Snoflo tracks. Each designation comes with different rules around access, recreation, and resource extraction.
- National Park
- Large protected natural areas managed by the federal government to preserve significant landscapes, ecosystems, and cultural resources; recreation is allowed but conservation is the priority.
- State Park
- Public natural or recreational areas managed by a state government, typically smaller than national parks and focused on regional natural features, recreation, and education.
- Local Park
- Community-level parks managed by cities or counties, emphasizing recreation, playgrounds, sports, and green space close to populated areas.
- Wilderness Area
- The highest level of land protection in the U.S.; designated areas where nature is left essentially untouched, with no roads, structures, or motorized motorized access permitted.
- National Recreation Area
- Areas set aside primarily for outdoor recreation (boating, hiking, fishing, often around reservoirs, rivers, or scenic landscapes); may allow more development.
- National Conservation Area (BLM)
- BLM-managed areas with special ecological, cultural, or scientific value; more protection than typical BLM land but less strict than Wilderness Areas.
- State Forest
- State-managed forests focused on habitat, watershed, recreation, and sustainable timber harvest.
- Bureau of Land Management (BLM) Land
- Vast federal lands managed for mixed use -- recreation, grazing, mining, conservation -- with fewer restrictions than national parks or forests.
