Dogwood Arts To Feature South Knoxville In 2015

Experience the Dogwood Trails the lean, green way – take a walk, run, or bike ride and observe nature’s wonders up close. A founding tradition of Dogwood Arts, the nationally-recognized Dogwood Trails are a must-see!

As the South Knoxville area continues to grow and revitalize in the wake of the re-opening of the Henley Street Bridge, Dogwood Arts & the Trails Advisory Board are of the belief that this sector of Knoxville as a whole deserves recognition and publicity. In addition to the Dogwood Chapman Highway Trail, South Knoxville has the Island Home Garden Byway, Ijams Nature Center, High Ground Park, Candoro Marble, and the 42 miles of biking and walking trails in Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness and much more.

It has been decided that the entire area be promoted rather than singling out the Chapman Highway Trail. We are very proud of the efforts of the South Knoxville residents, businesses, garden clubs and home owners associations to continue the beautification project that began 60 years ago.

Wondering what’s happening with the dogwood blooms in our neck of the woods? Stay tuned for the 2015 Bloom Watch!
