About Booker T. Washington State Park

Booker T. Washington State Park is named in honor of the famous leader, Booker Taliaferro Washington. He is best known for being the former president of the Tuskegee Institute, a black organization for higher education. Washington strongly believed that agriculture and vocational education were key to advancing a newly freed race to a better life, and not the pursuit of civil rights. Booker T. Washington State Park is situated on the shores of scenic Chickamauga Lake, where you can enjoy activities like hiking, biking, fishing, and birding.
