Urban Wilderness Gateway Park Expansion OPEN!

AMBC and community gathered in front of new pavilion at the Urban Wilderness Gateway Park.

It’s OPEN! We gathered with the community on February 5 to celebrate the opening of the Urban Wilderness Gateway Park expansion under the Sevierville Pike Bridge at 1250 Tilson St.

This space is a game changer for the urban wilderness — extending the park to the end of James White Parkway, adding more accessible parking, bathrooms, play areas, and providing cover and shade.

Thank you to all the hands that went into this project, and thank you to the community for showing up and showing love to this new space! For more photos, check out our Facebook post.

Shout out to The City of Knoxville, The City’s Parks & Recreation, Knoxville’s Urban Wilderness, and Legacy Parks Foundation.

KIDS + BIKES = TRAIL BLAZERS FUN

Trail Blazers is an 8-week program for 3rd–5th graders that blends on and off-bike games, trail exploration, and mentorship. It’s not about racing—it’s about building confidence, friendships, and a lifelong love of the outdoors. Each session emphasizes play and connection while building real-world bike skills.

Trail Blazers launches this fall with weekly sessions every Tuesday from 5–7 PM at Baker Creek Preserve, running September through October. This inaugural season is your invitation to join a new tradition of fun, adventure, and community on two wheels.
