On November 6, 2026, Tennessee will dedicate Angel’s Hollow State Park, bringing our state park system to 70 parks.

The dedication marks the culmination of 14 new state parks established during Governor Bill Lee’s administration. No other single administration has established as many Tennessee state parks.

At Tennessee State Parks Conservancy, we are proud to have helped establish both Angel’s Hollow and Buffalo River state parks. We celebrate this historic expansion and the shared commitment to conservation that made it possible. Together, these efforts preserve places where generations can explore, connect with nature, and create lasting memories.

Across Tennessee, families will discover new places to spend a Saturday, explore a trail, or introduce children to the outdoors. Communities will gain new connections to the landscapes and stories that shape their identities.

We celebrate as Angel’s Hollow now joins that growing legacy.
