Nope. It's a beautiful stretch of Riverside Drive 3.1 Miles from Downtown, on one of my favorite bicycle routes. The Avenue winds up over a ridge of rock that puts a kink in the Tennessee River, passing through a pocket forest.
These bits of rugged woods were skipped over as our cities grew too fast. Suburbia hopscotched over the difficult terrain to easier places further out. I want to explore the concept of the pocket forest (and explore the ones here in Knoxville). But for now I just wanted to share one of my favorite little places.
