4/24 Most State Parks Will Reopen Friday With Social Distancing

Governor Lee announced Monday that most state parks will reopen Friday April 24 for ‘day-use only’.

The parks ask that when visiting any Tennessee State Park to abide by the following:

– Stay at home if you are sick or do not feel well.
– Maintain at least six feet of distance between you and other visitors.
– Visit parks that are only a short distance from your home.
– Consider visiting earlier in the day so you can adjust plans if a park is full. Tennessee State Parks may limit access to certain parks or areas if capacity is reached.
– Plan ahead. Many Tennessee State Parks buildings will be closed. – – — Plan to bring your own snacks, water and hand sanitizer.
– Prepare for limited or no bathroom access. Some restrooms remain open, but many will not.
– Consider bringing a mask and wearing it when around other people.
– Carry your trash with you or dispose of it in the appropriate containers to help keep our cleaning staff safe and our parks litter-free.
