The last of our series of “Staycation” spots is McGregor Park and Riverwalk. This spot is located alongside Riverside Drive.
McGregor Park is a 15-acre park. The Cumberland Riverwalk is a two-mile riverfront trail available for anyone who wishes to get some exercise, but visitors can also rent a bicycle from the BCycle Station as well. Picnic areas are also available.
One of the best parts about the area is the As the River Flows Museum, located inside the Cumberland River Center. This display chronicles the history of Clarksville from its beginnings in 1785 and the importance of the Cumberland River in its history.
A playground is available for children. The park is open daily from sunrise to sunset. The museum is open Open daily from April – October from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and from November – March from 8 a.m. to 5 p.m.
