We also have over 100 miles of paddleable water and scores of hiking trails nearby. In addition, we offer arts, agritourism, wonderful restaurants, unique shopping, festivals and more. Known as “Bluegrass USA”, we are home to legendary bluegrass artists like Lester Flatt, Benny Martin, and Blake Williams. We are home to the IBMA award-winning “Lester Flatt Day” and offer free bluegrass music venues almost a dozen times per year.

Sparta is located near the middle of the Tennessee Valley Authority’s electrical service area making volumes of electricity both reliable, and affordable.
