Guntersville was selected as one of ten Tennessee RiverLine 2021-2023 Community Planning Initiative (CPI) communities. The CPI will bring capacity, expertise and resources to the serviced rural communities, positioning them to engage one of their most valuable natural and cultural resources – the Tennessee River – and realize its unmet potentials for economic development, public health, equitable access and environmental stewardship. It will accomplish this by accelerating rural placemaking investments within the framework of the Tennessee RiverLine.

The Tennessee RiverLine is a project for a 652-mile hiking, biking and paddling trail along the Tennessee River, stretching from Knoxville, Tennessee to Paducah, Kentucky. The Tennessee RiverLine will serve as a catalyst for economic, social and environmental growth across four states while connecting communities and celebrating the history, beauty and diversity of the Tennessee River Valley. The project began as a vision in the UT School of Landscape Architecture, and since has transformed into a project including 25+ partners, such as the National Park Service, Tennessee State Parks, Tennessee Valley Authority and many more.
