Clarksville was founded on the Red and Cumberland rivers in 1784, and these bodies of water serve as some of the biggest aquatic playgrounds in the area. If water isn't your speed, check out the Greenway with nine miles of walking and biking trail with bikes available for rent at multiple points throughout the Queen city.

There are a thousand ways to spend a day in Clarksville. Check out a live performance at the Downtown Commons, find some fresh produce at the Downtown Marketplace or play a round of mini golf at The City Forum. Whatever your passion is, experience it in Clarksville.

Clarksville may not be the culinary center of the world, but that doesn't stop the community from supplying the city with some of the best food in Tennessee. Find a cup of coffee and a scone at Plumbline Coffee, a helping of schnitzel at Strawberry Alley Ale Works or a traditional German breakfast at Silke's Old World Breads. If you are a self-proclaimed foodie, then Clarksville may very well be the place for you.
