    The Tennessee Department of Tourist Development is inviting cyclists to experience even more of Tennessee’s breathtaking scenery and natural beauty with the addition of 37 newly curated gravel cycling routes to its Bike Tennessee program. 

    These routes build upon an existing network of 52 road cycling routes, adding more than 1,000 miles of diverse terrain and creating even more opportunities for cyclists and outdoor enthusiasts to explore the state on two wheels.

    Bike Tennessee’s recent growth aligns with Tennessee’s thriving outdoor economy, which generated $15.6 billion in 2024 and ranks No. 4 in the Southeast, according to the Bureau of Economic Analysis.

    The newly added gravel routes are accessible through the Ride with GPS app and Cyclists can learn more about Bike Tennessee and explore available road and gravel routes by visiting Bike Tennessee’s website or by following Bike Tennessee on Facebook and Instagram.
