Welcome to the Shelby Bottoms Nature Center which is a great place
to begin your visit to the Park. Pick up a map, talk to a
naturalist, learn about the natural history and history of the
area, get a view of the Cumberland River, or get a program schedule
of upcoming events. Learn about a “green roof”, see how
a “waterless urinal” works and view other sustainable
features of this new facility. Programs are offered year-round on a
variety of topics.
You'll need to ask one of the staff members for the cache
container.
Hours: Tuesday – Friday, 12 noon to 4:00 pm
Saturday, 9:00 am – 4:00 pm
Sunday and Monday, Closed
The difficulty rating is based on the fact that you will have to
make your visit during these times.
Please read: Please stay on trails to
and from cache locations.
Some of the trails may be seasonally wet. Do
not disturb wildlife, or plants.
When finding this cache, please leave only
family friendly contents. These caches will likely be used for
educational purposes for GIS students and will introduce them to
the sport of Geocaching. Let's make a good impression.
As always remember Cache In Trash Out. I will
try to keep trash bags in the cache containers for your
use.
We currently have a great working
relationship with Metro Parks and the Shelby Bottoms Nature Center,
so please respect the park hours and the above guidelines when
searching so we can continue this.
Shelby Park and Bottoms is open 7 days a week
from daylight until dusk.
