If you are looking for a place to come play for the day, you can’t do better than TVA’s developed recreational lands. At the Muscle Shoals Reservation, there are ample fishing opportunities including a handicap accessible pier and overlooks at Wilson Dam. Also, found here are boat launching ramps, two modern playgrounds, picnic areas, and picnic pavilions. Take a hike! Whether you’re on feet, wheels, or pushing a stroller, find your trail here. The options for fun are nearly endless with the 17 miles of trails for every type user from easy to moderately difficult. The interconnected trail system offers scenic vistas, historic structures, backcountry experiences, bank fishing access, and open meadows. Several sites on the Reservation and along the trails are great for viewing migratory birds, especially the open waters of the Wilson Dam Tailwater.
