Mud Island River Park

At Mud Island, see the twists and turns of the Mississippi River following the River Walk. Learn about the shipping of cotton on the river and the musical history made in cities along the river, from New Orleans jazz to Memphis blues. See the Memphis Belle, a historic WWII airplane. The Mud Island Amphitheatre on the island hosts concerts in the summer. To get there, ride the monorail.

Tom Lee Park

Tom Lee was an African-American living in Memphis who became a hero when he saved 32 people from a sinking steamboat in 1925. Even though he could not swim, he rowed a small boat into the strong currents of the Mississippi River to rescue the victims. Tommy Lee Park, stretches for a mile and half along the banks of the river, is dedicated to this hero and contains a monument to him. This is the site of several events throughout the year, including the Barbecue Contest, the Sunset Symphony concert at the end of May, and a Jazz Festival.

Audubon Park

Near the University of Memphis and the Oak Court Mall, Audubon Park offers several recreational facilities, including a golf course, playground, tennis courts, a soccer field and picnic areas. The jogging trails are popular with local residents, and several family groups and other organizations hold large picnics here each year. On certain weekends, an additional attraction is the chance to watch a local group act out medieval battles, complete with costumes and realistic props.

Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

Lacing the meandering Mississippi River, this verdant park is indeed a naturalist's dream, cut through by winding trails, swamps and forests cloaked in hardwood and cypress. Here, the soaring Chickasaw Bluffs are adorned with carpets of oak and beech, and are traversed by a melange of mammals like deer, bobcats, foxes and beavers. A stunning amalgam of nature and biodiversity, the park shelters an array of lakes like the Poplar Tree Lake and Lake Piersol, which are deeply contrasted by dense woods and winding pathways. In addition, the park also houses a disc-golf course, an archery range and a nature center with exhibits demonstrating local wildlife. The park is also home to a beautiful, seasonally-open butterfly garden, as well as the Meeman Museum and Nature Center, a tribute to conservationist Edward J. Meeman.
