Parks & Nature

You never know what animals you'll see on a hike here (turtles, deer, owls, turkey...). The 1.4 mile mulched lake trail is fairly flat and beautiful. The Garnier Ridge and South Cove loops will get your heart pounding.

Edwin Warner and its neighbor, Percy Warner, have great hiking trails! There are paved hikes, but I like the ones that have changes in elevation. The blue trail (2.5 miles) is my favorite for its variety, though others swear by the 4.5-mile red trail.

Not my favorite since it's trail is paved, but it's close by. There are always plenty of friendly runners, walkers, and bikers to say hello to.

A beautiful park close to downtown. Always packed with sunbathers, frisbee players, and walkers and bikers on the great paved trail that runs along the outside.

A bit of a drive, but never crowded with some great hiking trails. The Day Loop is beautiful and less hilly than some others in the area.

Arts & Culture

I don't frequent the Grand Ole Opry - I feel it's overpriced and repetitive. But the tour of the Opry house is probably the the most interesting I've taken in Nashville. Definitely worth the money!

Yummy, very reasonably-priced food right downtown. Don't be afraid by the line - they get you right through. We go here every time my parents visit. The chicken & rice soup and oven-roasted chicken are my favorites!

My favorite barbeque place if I want to hang out a bit. It's got a cool vibe and full bar (my friend loves their Bushwackers). Plus delicious food. They make the brisket fresh each day and often run out by dinner time!

I love this place! I love the laid back atmosphere, amazing beers, yummy pizza and wings, and frequent special events. They're a local brewery and always have 15-20 specialty beers on tap! - some of which are crazy (but tasty) flavors like Fruit Loops. Go to hang out indoors or out, watch sports, or play the games they have.
