New Benches at Spring Hike

group photo for the spring hike
The Friends of Henry Horton State Park celebrated the first spring hike on Saturday, March 22, 2025. The group hiked for one mile at the new seven mile (soon to be 10 mile) multi-use trail for hikers and bikers. Ranger Raelynn Weber found some salamanders one the course that day.
Wayne Drown from the Tennessee Trails Association (TTA) showed everyone how the new Leopold Benches can be used for sitting while birdwatching, taking photographs, or just resting. The supplies for the benches were provided from a grant funded by TTA.
