Explore part of the undeveloped woods that crown Bellevue on this off-trail, approximately 3-mile outing. Starting at the Belle Forest Cave & Arboretum property, this hike will climb to a ridge with views of two valleys, pick up the high trail that runs the ridgeline, and continue to the West Meade Waterfall and back.

Participants will see why conservation of the 148 acres of the Nashville Highland woods between the two protected properties is so important. Work continues to secure conservation easements and new public land additions to conserve and connect Nashville’s Highland Rim forest, linking Radnor, Warner Parks, West Meade, Bells Bend, Beaman, and Whites Creek− protecting our land, air, waters, wildlife, scenery, and our children’s future.

Wear sturdy shoes, dress in layers, and bring your poles.

Level: Strenuous

Bring: Hiking boots, poles as needed.

Additional Directions: Registrants will receive meetup parking instructions.
