About Paducah's Dogwood Trail
The dogwood trail in Paducah began in April 1964 when the Civic Beautification Board started the tradition of touring Paducah in bloom. Inspired by the beauty of Knoxville, Tennessee's dogwoods, the trail is now a driving tour traversing Historic Downtown, Lower Town Arts District and other residential neighborhoods. The tour showcases Dogwood, Japanese Maple, Red Bud and Weeping Cherry trees as well as blooming garden areas and other flowering species.
Birds & Blooms included Paducah Dogwood Trail among 8 Must-See Flower Festivals!
