Go swimming at this awesome quarry (just DONT jump off any cliffs, people die this way)

Grab your floating tubes or hiking shoes. The old Quarry has been filled with water and you can float for free! Also, great hiking trails. Only 10 minutes away.

This is a great spot to view a beautiful and scenic quarry. You are allowed to swim in this, but you have to go around back. I would not recommend swimming here as it's located in South Knoxville and lower quality individuals swim around there and I would not want your safety to be impacted. The viewpoint is safe and a beautiful thing to enjoy. You'll get to cross the main Bridge over the Tennessee river as well when you go see it.
