Kingston Tennessee is a provincial little town in a most beautiful setting. It is blessed with water and scenery with the Emory and Clinch River confluence at the northern end and the Clinch and Tennessee River confluence at the southern end. Fort Southwest Point Park anchors the town at one end and the Ladd Landing Greenway will provide the bookend to the north.
Starting at Ladd Park at the Clinch and Emory confluence, the greenway carves its way through several micro habitats and a mature mixed hardwood forest. There is nowhere else in Roane County that you can walk into a deep forest on the comfort of a paved trail. The Ladd Landing Greenway is a gift that everyone in Kingston should enjoy and treasure from now on.
You may encounter some wildlife on your caching journey, mainly turkey, deer, or bunnies. Be sure to bring some water to stay hydrated during your walk or ride.
If you are feeling energetic, then you can start at the lower end of Ladd Landing Greenway (waypoint P1) and walk or bike the entire 2.5 mile loop. It can be strenuous at times on the way up the hill, but it is a bit easier coming down... If you don't want to walk as far, you can park at the bridge (waypoint P2) or on the upper end (waypoint P3), although it is still a good hike from these points also.
