The Narrows of the Harpeth offers upstream and downstream canoe/kayak access along with a unique 1/4 mile portage option, making it ideal for paddlers of varying skill levels on this Class I river.

The site features three hiking trails originating from a common trailhead, including a half-mile bluff overlook trail and access to historic sites like Montgomery Bell's 1818 hand-cut tunnel.

Day-use only with seasonal hours (7 AM-7 PM April-September, 8 AM-4:30 PM November-February); note that access may close during high water conditions.
