The Townsend River Walk and Arboretum has been certified by the Tennessee Urban Forestry Council. It is a fun and educational experience. Each tree has a plaque that provides tree information.
Every season on river walk brings something new. Blossoms and flowers in the Spring; flowers and a place to cool off in the Summer; colorful foliage in the Fall and the Winter brings scenic views of the trail and river.
Get directions to the Townsend River Walk as well as a detailed map of the river walk and arboretum. We have it mapped to make finding and enjoying the Townsend River Walk a bit easier.
