Norris is a popular tourist and recreation destination, and in summer 2005 TVA opened a new
visitor center at the dam. Visitors can learn about the history of Norris, hydropower operations,
and TVA’s management of the river system. The facility, located at the top of the dam, is open
Monday through Saturday from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m. It’s staffed by TVA
retiree volunteers.
In the 1930s, TVA established demonstration public parks at several locations on Norris
Reservoir, including Cove Lake, Big Ridge, and the area around Norris Dam. These parks later
became the nucleus of Tennessee’s state park system.
Norris features three hiking trails. The River Bluff Trail is the longest at 3.1 miles and offers rich
pockets of wildflowers. The Edge Path is a shady corridor with wheelchair access. The Songbird
Trail is, as the name suggests, a popular area for birding.
