Nashville has plenty of beautiful parks not only in the city proper but also in the greater regional area. Radnor Lake is known for its beauty and offers a great nature walk for little ones, and you can’t ask a local for recommendations without hearing about the Warner Parks. Preservation Park is located a little over thirty minutes south of the city, and though it may take a hot second in the car to reach, it remains one of the most beautiful state-protected parks in the area. Brilliantly green in the spring and boasting year-round views, this is one spot nature lovers can’t skip.

Kelly Walker - AllTrails Preservation Park is 200 acres in total and remains one of the most modern additions to the Thompson’s Station Park system. It’s probably not hard to imagine, but Preservation Park was once used as a grazing pasture.

Cindy Rivera - AllTrails The park was preserved as a part of the Battle of Thompson’s Station, and there are plaques situated along the main Battlefield Trail that tell the story of the Confederate victory. The land is outfitted with bathrooms and a picnic area if you’re planning to spend a good bit of time out and about with your family.

Solamen Silva - AllTrails The park has been well-conserved in its original natural state, and the trail cut through the lower pastureland leads you to a hill with grand views. On a clear day you just might see forever!

Shelley Rene - AllTrails Though the land is fairly level at the base of Preservation Park you should expect elevation gain throughout your trek. There is free parking, and though the park is not technically wheelchair or ADA accessible, there is a significant amount of level land to traverse.

Margaret Minnich - AllTrails Visitors rave about the beauty of the peaceful countryside, and the park is dog friendly as well. Make sure you bring your own water and heaps of bug spray in the summertime, though. Tennessee is home to quite a few insects, and you want to remain safe throughout your hike.
