Fun Facts

The park commemorates the Trail of Tears, where thousands of Cherokee were forcibly removed from their ancestral lands in the 1830s.

The park is situated at Blythe Ferry, a key crossing point on the Trail of Tears where many Cherokee began their journey westward.

The wall is inscribed with the names of over 2,500 Cherokee who were part of the forced relocation.

The park offers interpretive trails and exhibits that provide insights into Cherokee culture and the history of their removal.

In addition to its historical significance, the park offers scenic views of the Tennessee River and surrounding landscapes.
