The Williams Island Trail and Campground

Williams Island is a 450-acre island at the gateway of the Tennessee River Gorge. For over 10,000 years, humans have been interacting with this unique space. Currently, there is a free, public campground on the island managed by the Tennessee River Gorge Trust. The Tennessee River Gorge Trust team is also working to create a 2-mile loop trail that takes visitors around the island to a future grassland restoration site, a scenic vista into the Tennessee River Gorge, wildlife viewing area by a large wetland, and informational kiosks. The trail system has been designed by TRGT in partnership with the Eastern Band of the Cherokee, Tennessee Division of Archaeology, Muscogee Creek Nation....
