The city of Clarksville will close Dunbar Cave Road just in front of the park, in order to replace a badly damaged bridge. This closure is expected to last 45 days.
This will result in the park being inaccessible from the direction of Exit 8/Dunbar Cave Rd. coming from I-24.
From I-24. Take Exit 4, and follow Wilma Rudolph Boulevard west to Dunbar Cave Road. Turn left on Dunbar Cave Road.
From downtown Clarksville: Take Wilma Rudolph Boulevard and turn right on Dunbar Cave Road.
Tennessee State Parks are open. Park hours may vary from normal operations in response to COVID-19. Certain parks or areas of parks may close if they reach capacity. Events may have limited capacity.
Please Note: Masks are required inside all state park facilities. For more information about this and other guidelines, please see our Keeping Visitors Healthy page to ensure a safe and enjoyable experience.
Statewide Alert (effective August 10, 2020): Visitors are required to wear a mask in any state park facility staffed by employees or where the general public may congregate. This includes park offices, visitor centers, stores, nature centers, restrooms or while touring any indoor facility being considered for rent. If visitors do not have a mask, parks will maintain a small amount of paper masks to provide to a visitor for their use. Any park rental facility- including cabins, Lodge rooms, campsites, picnic shelters, group facilities, etc. - are considered as having “restricted use” and will be the responsibility of the party renting that facility. It is recommended that they follow all CDC recommendations and guidelines regarding social distancing and mask wearing.
Visitors are required to follow the mask ordinances of the county they are in, or the park rules listed above, whichever are more stringent.
