Waters of the World

Highlight • Structure

Runners can cool off mid-stride at the Waters of the World in Knoxville's World's Fair Park. The splash zone situated near the playground offers overheated joggers a rejuvenating dip, while keeping watch for kids dashing about. Laps around the fountains also provide views of the iconic Sunsphere tower perched at the park's edge. Waters of the World makes a refreshing, lively pit stop along Knoxville runs.

Gay Street Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

It's really nice to walk over Gay Street Bridge with outstanding view over Tennessee River and Henley Street upstream. Completed in 1898, the 1,512-foot (461 m) bridge is the oldest of four vehicle bridges connecting Downtown Knoxville with South Knoxville. The bridge is beautiful to watch, with its green-painted steel spandrel-braced (cantilever) arched design, featured by historic street lamps.
