Nice spot to walk along Tennessee river. Here you can find Maude Moore's cave with two entrances. It is also in front of Otter Island, so it isn't difficult to see some of these animals at dusk.

My favorite is the geological fold it is truly mesmerizing to look at. All in all very tranquil park. Ijams Nature Center Knoxville TN

Lovely views, quiet in the mornings.
Rock stairs on the Tower trail are a wonderful CCC- esque element.
