Maryville Alcoa Greenway

The Maryville Alcoa Greenway is a path system running about 9 miles through town areas, linking multiple parks with paved routes. The trail connects the two neighboring cities and accommodates walkers, runners, and cyclists of all levels.

The greenway began in 2002 following a community movement to create safe pathways linking Maryville and Alcoa. This project grew from local residents' desire to improve connections between the neighboring communities.

The greenway serves as a social hub where neighbors regularly meet for exercise and outdoor gatherings. It functions as a gathering space that brings the two communities together through shared recreational use.

You can enter the greenway through several parking areas located at Bicentennial Park and Sandy Springs Park. The paths are well-marked and accessible year-round, with easier walking conditions in spring and fall.

The trail includes free fitness stations positioned along the route for visitors to use, plus viewpoints for watching local wildlife. This connection between shopping areas and parks gives travelers a view of different neighborhood styles.
