Event details

Trade pavement for sandstone at Carter Caves State Resort Park, where a ranger-led geology hike turns the famous Three Bridges Trail into an outdoor classroom. You’ll follow ridgeline paths past Smoky, Fern, and Raven natural bridges, pausing for bite-size stories about ancient seas, cliff-forming rock layers, and the cool hollows that keep spring wildflowers thriving.

Pack water, sturdy shoes, and a sense of curiosity. The loop includes scenic overlooks toward Smoky Valley Lake, and it’s paced for families who want big views without a race-day vibe.
