The climb up to the top of Shy's Hill is a steep one. Today the hill sits in residential suburban Nashville, marked with a state historical marker.
Steps lead up the steep incline to the crest of the heavily wooded hill.
The Confederate defensive fortifications, still visible, were placed too far up the hill, allowing the Yankees to climb the hill out of harm's way. Open dawn to dusk. Turn right at Shy's Hill Rd. Park safely at side of road. Steps up the hill to the left.
