Nice size park that has THE MOST covered pavilions in Knoxville, and the only free public tennis wall. It connects to the Third Creek greenway, you can walk the east side or the west side (east side towards UT Gardens is more scenic).

We usually park somewhere around the tennis courts and begin our journey. All the paths are paved with blacktop and are in great shape. You can take the westward route and walk a well shaded pathway all the way to West High School and back or head east and enter into the University of Tennessee Agriculture Center and eventually connect to the riverfront. Many other activities abound at Tyson Park, there is a skate board park several well managed tennis courts, a children's playground and picnic facilities.
