chickasaw trace county park

Chickasaw Trace County Park is an absolutely wonderful and very family friendly park. They are located in one of the most beautiful areas with woods and solitude around it. As you enter the park, you are greeted by a beautiful old log cabin. This log cabin has been the center of many weddings and makes for a beautiful photo shoot. There are plenty of playground areas. The Duck River is within walking distance as you trail walk alongside of it. There is also a boat dock within the park area. There is also a model airplane strip and area for flying hobby planes. It is a quiet park and one I feel anyone would enjoy. Wonderful area for walking as well.

We enjoy the extensive mountain bike trails at Chickasaw Trace, but there are some caveats. No signs direct you to the entrance to the trails when you enter the main park, which also has an old log cabin, radio controlled airplane flying area, and picnic pavilions. A map of the meandering trails offered are on a message board at the entrance, but it is hard to use since no signs tell you how to get to which trail other than one "entrance" marker. While on the trails, you will often come to intersections that are not marked, leaving you wondering which way is the right direction. Even the "emergency" exits are not well marked. The last time I was there with my son we were sort of lost and saw another father and son in pretty much the same boat. We escaped by forging through a waist high field of grass to get to the airplane flying area and luckily knew how to get back to the truck. These trails are used by the cycling club for races in which the courses change from month to month, but I wish there were more permanent signs left for the casual users during the week so we'd know where we were.

Great destination for kayaking, picnicking, and general outdoor activities. Great bike trails. Nice venue for any outdoor group activity

Easy to get to and beautiful. it's just off the nashville hwy and has a good long set of trails to enjoy

I visit this park to ride my mountain bike weekly ! There are over nine miles of trails with many loops that you can do that range from beginner to expert. This is the best riding anywhere in TN that I've found.If you want to swim in a river, drive a RC car on a nice track or even fly a RC plane with a proper landing strip, nice picnic areas, it's here for you!
