Ross's Landing, Historic river landing in downtown Chattanooga, United States
Ross's Landing extends along the Tennessee River waterfront, featuring a natural amphitheater, marina, and multiple pedestrian walkways for public enjoyment.
The landing, established between 1813 and 1816 by Cherokee businessman John Ross, served as a departure point for Cherokee groups during the forced removal of 1838.
The site commemorates the Cherokee heritage through educational displays and monuments that document the experiences of Native Americans in the Tennessee Valley region.
Located at 201 Riverfront Parkway, the landing includes accessible parking areas, restroom facilities, and direct connections to downtown Chattanooga's walking paths.
During the Civil War, this location transformed into the Cracker Line, a vital supply route that delivered essential resources to Union forces in Chattanooga.
