Tennessee is truly a beautiful state with a whopping 56 unique state parks. Did you know that Tennessee has over 80 waterfalls? I didn’t either, until I visited the TN State Park website.

Tennessee State Parks and a History of TN
Tennessee has to be the best of states in which to put a park system! The diversity that Tennessee State Parks presents across the state is remarkable. Check out the pictures in our Chickasaw State Park article. And this is both a natural and cultural diversity. The great geologic divisions of the state, and the ecological regions that follow according to climate and terrain, bring about diversity in stories of people in these environments. In addition, what is known as the Frontier Line was in the process of passing through Tennessee for a long period of time.

Tennessee State Parks are ideal locations for small conferences, weddings, corporate retreats, family reunions, church and civic retreats and many other types of events. They offer unique event and meeting spaces for group gathering; from the modern conference and meeting facilities at our inns, to the beautiful and rustic Tea Room at Norris Dam, and everything in between.
It was a perfect day, the day we visited Nathan Bedford Forrest State Park. We had a chance to do some hiking and site seeing around the park. Setting up a time to go back and do some camping is definitely a must! If you are looking for an inexpensive get away then what could be better then visiting one of our State Parks.
Get un-plugged, find your park and enjoy the great outdoors!Â

Hi Becky, I didn’t know about the waterfalls either until I received an email from the TN state park the other day. Tennessee is a beautiful state with lots to see and do. Can’t wait to start exploring more of our new home state myself. Nick and I will be back from our travels by mid September.
Great idea Silke! I’ll have to make it a point to visit TN this summer. Didn’t know there where so many waterfalls in the state. Pretty neat!
