I was surprised to see fog rising off the river this morning but it set up for an incredibly calming start to the day. This was a cool summer morning in late May. It was supposed to be partly cloudy with a good amount of sun, which made it even more surprising to see the fog along the river as I pulled up. The birds were especially talkative. I'm not sure if it was because of the fog, but the combination of the cool air, talkative birds and babbling of the river made for an beautiful relaxing experience.
Blue sky. Pink Clouds.
Blue sky and pink clouds
There’s a lot going on in this picture. The sky is tall and blue. While the lower clouds are bathed in beautiful pink light. The fog is still dancing around in the distance. And in the lower right corner you can see daylight beginning to reveal the Harpeth River.

Narrows Of The Harpeth Hike
The best part about this park and the hike is that it's only a half hour away from Nashville but you really feel like you are in the middle of nowhere. The hike is pretty steep but not too bad. And when you get to the top, the view is well worth it.

Narrows Of The Harpeth State Park
Narrows Of The Harpeth
This is a great spot right outside of Nashville along the Harpeth River. I ventured out here on a Sunday afternoon after hearing about this spot from a coworker.
It's a pretty secluded spot, but still easily accessible. You even get to drive down a gravel road to feel like you're really out in the wild.
The hike isn't very technical, but it is a very steep grade. Don't fret though, the view from the top is well worth it.
Have you ever been here? Where's your favorite place to go to be with nature?
