Discover the wonders of the great outdoors with Outdoor Chattanooga’s Silver Adventures, for adults aged 50 and above.

Step back in time and explore the historic landscape of Brown’s Ferry and the Federal Road on this engaging guided walk.  The trail is rated easy, and is about 1.2 miles round‑trip (out & back) with some uneven ground.

Led by a Chickamauga Chattanooga National Park interpretive ranger, this tour traces one of the most important early transportation routes in the region—used by Native American tribes, settlers, soldiers, and traders. Discover the stories behind Brown’s Ferry, a strategic river crossing during the Civil War, and learn how the Federal Road shaped the development of Chattanooga and the surrounding areas.

Registration is required.  Van carpooling may be necessary due to limited parking at the trailhead. Additional information will be shared to your registration email a couple days prior to the program.
