Top 7 Nature & Parks in Clarksville, Tennessee (TN)

December 12, 2021 Russell Mellin

Clarksville, Tennessee, in Montgomery County, is a bustling city built by the tobacco trade. The Customs House Museum & Cultural Center, in the city's historic district, was originally constructed as a US Post Office during the tobacco boom. Now it has been converted into art gallery, history center, and hands-on children's museum. Just outside of town is the Dunbar Cave State Park, where visitors can hike through caverns that were once mined for gun powder and used for big band concerts.

Great civil war site that is well maintained overlooking the river. They have some of the cannons placed overlooking the river. Well worth a stop, I recommend this to one and all. Kids will like the river overlook and all the cannons and cannon balls.

If the weather is permitting, this is a nice place to sit or bicycle about. The Cumberland is a historic river, with an open interpretative center in the pavilion.

Dunbar Cave

This park has a very unique set of rock formations, sinkholes, and of course, caves and caverns. The mouth of the cave is spacious and perfect for fun events like cave yoga, and square-dancing. More information on this park and many more can be found at the TN State Parks website.
