      Sharps Ridge Memorial Park has some of the best views of the Knoxville skyline, just off of Broadway in North Knoxville. AMBC is currently developing the trails at Sharps Ridge, which will eventually total approximately 8 miles. Currently, there are 4 miles of well-draining singletrack trail. While the trails are under development, trailheads are currently unmarked- but can be found just across the road from the first picnic area, and just to the left of the cell tower at the end of the road.
