Fall Is The Perfect Time To Visit The Reflection Riding Arboretum And Nature Center In Tennessee

Reflection Riding Arboretum and Nature Center in Tennessee offers a peaceful and beautifully maintained space for exploring the connection between humans and nature.

The beauty of the great outdoors in Tennessee is obvious no matter the season, but if you're really looking to enjoy the lush expanse of the state, we'd recommend visiting the Reflection Riding Arboretum and Nature Center. Located just outside of Chattanooga, Tennessee, this public use space is perfect for anyone who is looking to explore the connection between humans and nature. Peaceful, beautifully maintained, and perfect for a day out, this is one local spot you don't want to skip.

The Reflection Riding Arboretum And Nature Center is a non-profit that's located in Chattanooga, Tennessee, and is made up of 317 acres and 15 miles of walkable trails.

The nature center is known for its expansive beauty, and you'll find over 1,000 species of flowers and 150 tree species on-site. If you'd rather come and enjoy from the car, there's even a three-mile driving route through the forested gardens.

The location is meant to provide a bridge between people and the expansive beauty of nature, and members are welcome to visit the campus from sunrise to sunset every day of the year. Visitors can reserve a visit pass.

If you want to take a plant home for yourself, you can visit the Native Plant Nursery from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., Tuesday to Saturday.

You may not believe at first that over 300 stunning acres of the natural woodland property is situated just 10 minutes from the midst of downtown Chattanooga. The location operates on a few different levels, considered not only a public park but also a nature center.
