A bird lovers, paradise, and a wonderful education on wildlife. I visited this Arboretum by accident after taking a tour of Ruby Falls the first day I walked the loop trail and was amazed by the variety of songbirds that I observed both by ear and by eye. I returned on Friday for the narrated tour of the wildlife enclosures, where they house and care for raptors, a bobcat and three red wolves. Taylor Barry, the chief wildlife officer, led the tour which lasted over an hour and shared so much interesting information about the different species and also about the red wolf breeding and introduction projects over the years I recommend this for children for and above, an adults of all ages

Cool outdoor park and trails with some neat things to check out. The tree house was cool, the kids liked the river access area, there’s a small exhibit of local reptiles and amphibians, and the kids looooved the horses in the field. It was a great place for a family picnic. They also seem to have a nature friendly kids summer camp that was ongoing, I think I saw them clearing out invasive species. Great place to spend a few hours!

This was a very nice and easy walk hidden away from the tourist type things nearby downtown Chattanooga. We saw horses, old cabins, and lots of different flowers. The trails were well marked. I would recommend coming here and don’t forget to leave a donation!

A nice place to visit, easy to access, amd plenty parking. I didn't stay long, just parked and did a quick walk to the tree house. From other posted photos on the reviews, it looks like it would also be good to visit in Spring or beginning of Fall. I'll certainly come back

My husband and I and some friends were in Chattanooga for 2 days. Reflection Riding Arboretum and Nature Center was the highlight of our trip. We'd never been there before and we enjoyed a lovely walk through well groomed trails on Tuesday afternoon and returned to do it again Wednesday before heading home! What a gem of a place to reflect, walk and enjoy nature. Chattanooga is blessed to have this.
