Beaman Park - Ridgetop Trail

Beaman Park is a unique treasure in the Nashville Park System due to its wild, untouched land. The park lies on the Highland Rim just outside of Nashville's metropolitan area. Due to its location on the Rim, you can expect steep forested inclines, rocky ridges, and elevations around 1,000 feet on your hike. Although Beaman Park has plenty of rises and valleys, the 2.1-mile Ridgetop Trail is considered moderately difficult. The trail takes you one way into the woods, so prepare for a 4.2-mile round trip hike. If you take the Ridgetop path, you're sure to see hilltop views of a hickory forest, as well as diverse wildlife and plant life.
