Give back to the park that gave you your favorite memories.

Now's your chance to show your love for Red Clay State Historic Park . During the My TN State Parks Fundraiser in April, every donation is a vote for Red Clay State Historic Park as your favorite Tennessee State Park, and an investment in its future.

With each vote, you're helping fund meaningful improvements such as constructing hiking trails and bridges, conserving habitats for wildlife, upgrading playgrounds, installing interpretive signage, and enhancing care for our raptor friends.

About Red Clay State Historic Park

Red Clay State Historic Park encompasses 263 acres of narrow valleys formerly used as cotton and pasture land. Red Clay is where the Trail of Tears really began, for it was at the Red Clay Council Grounds that the Cherokee learned that they had lost their mountains, streams, and valleys forever. The park is home to a natural landmark, Blue Hole Spring, which arises from beneath a limestone ledge to form a deep pool that flows into Mill Creek.
