About Savage Gulf State Park

A 19,000 acre gulf and gorge system anchors this park, designated a National Natural Landmark for its geological and ecological character. The scale of the terrain places it among the larger protected tracts in Middle Tennessee, encompassing rugged land shaped by the gorge itself. Visitors deciding whether to go can weigh the sheer size of the acreage against what that designation signals about the landscape's recognized natural value.

Hours, fees, camping, reservations and closures are set by the park and change often. Check the official park site before you go.
