\u201cThis is an opportunity for people to feel connected to nature and to learn about a Tennessee State Park at the same time with the guidance of a park ranger,\u201d said Anne Marshall, acting deputy commissioner of the Tennessee Department of Environment and Conservation.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhether you\u2019re interested in a park\u2019s history, seeing incredible views or taking a challenging trek, our parks give everyone that feeling that you can\u2019t get anywhere else,\u201d Marshall stated.<\/p>\n
