Art and culture seekers can stroll through The Gulch’s vibrant street art or schedule an afternoon at the Frist Art Museum, showcasing rotating exhibits in a beautifully restored Art Deco building. Outdoor adventurers will enjoy walking or biking along the Cumberland River Greenway, taking in skyline views, or renting a kayak for a paddle along the river.
