STERCHI HILLS GREENWAY

KNOXVILLE, TENNESSEE

 

The Sterchi Hills Greenway is a peaceful ride in a suburban setting.  Expect some shade and some open trail, some flat and some interesting hills, two nice interconnected parks and parking spaces.  A fine place to take the kids.  Just watch out for the road crossings.

 

 

1 Mile 0.00 STERCHI VILLAGE BOULEVARD
The trail begins at Sterchi Village Boulevard in the middle of a subdivision

At the 0.04 mile mark the trail enters a cool shade lined trail for a short distance before opening into a big parking area for lots of cars.

 

 

2 Mile 0.50 STERCHI HILLS PARK
I park the trusty Tracker in the Sterchi Hills Park, unload the bicycle, and set out to find the true beginning for the Sterchi Hills Greenway.

Yes... Mabel... There's a bathroom here.

Faith United Methodist Church is located across the road from the Greenway parking area.

 

 

3 Mile 0.70 RIFLE RANGE ROAD CROSSING

The back roads in the area are not heavily traveled, but caution is in order when crossing them.

 

 

4 Mile 1.30 PARKDALE ROAD CROSSING
Another road crossing at Parkdale Road.

There is an interesting downhill grade before this crossing.  Just remember... it's uphill going back...

 

 

5 Mile 1.80 LEE STEWART FIELDS
The terminus for the Greenway is at the Lee Stewart Fields

Yes, Mabel... I know you can't wait... but there really are bathrooms here.

 

 

6 Mile 3.00 THE SOCCER LOOP
After circling the Soccer Loop, the Greenway ends at three miles.

Periodically the Greenway serves as a 5K run site.  Encouragement, in the form of sidewalk graffiti, is strategically placed along the trail to bring the runners home.
