Meads Quarry offers fun for the whole family. Just 2 miles away, the park offers kayak/paddle board rentals, hiking/biking trails, swimming and fishing access.

Knoxville doesn't really use public pools, we use the quarries. Mead's quarry connects to the urban wilderness, a former industrial site that has been reclaimed by nature and turned into amazing hiking. This quarry is full of locals swimming, floating, reading, paddle boarding, etc. Family friendly, paddle board rentals on site. I personally prefer this one because I like to read in my floatie.

Great outdoor recreation spot! Rent kayas and paddleboards, or just swim, picnic, or hike. Beautifully clear, perfect-temperature water.

You can rent SUP's, swim, jump off the dock, and see freshwater jellyfish!
