WHILE YOU'RE ON THE 9 MILE ROUTE
A. Starting on Old Tazewell Pike/Ridgeview Rd (the Knoxville side):
From Tazewell Pike, take Old Tazewell Pike off Tazewell Pike. As of Sept 2023, Old Tazewell Pike is the new starting point for the 9 Mile route. At the end of Old Tazewell Pike, turn right onto Ridgeview Road. The 9 Mile route follows Ridgeview Rd. for about 4 miles and includes Ridgeview Heights subdivision and several participating side roads, such as Jones Rd., McNeely Rd & Henegar Rd, but always return to Ridgeview Rd. so that you stay on the 9 Mile route.
After about 4 miles, you'll come to a stop sign where Ridgeview Rd. crosses Maloneyville Rd. Go straight across to continue on Ridgeview Rd. (you'll see our signs). Continue a short distance (you'll pass about 7 houses) and you'll come to a fork in the road; this is the intersection of Fairview Rd. and Ridgeview Rd. Veer Right to stay on Ridgeview Rd. (again, you'll see our signs pointing the way). Continue about 2/10th of a mile to see Clapps Chapel Rd. starts on the Left while Ridgeview continues straight for 0.8 miles until it dead ends. (Sometimes there are sales on the "dead end" part, so our signs will guide you to either continue on Ridgeview for more yard sales or turn Left onto Clapps Chapel Rd.)
Stay on Clapps Chapel Rd. for about 1 mile and you'll arrive at Clapps Chapel Methodist Church on the corner of Emory Rd. Usually, there is a lot going on at Clapps Chapel Church, including lunch and vendors! Look for signs indicating sales across the road from the church in Gibbs Estates S/D or turn left on Emory Rd. to the first right into Scotch Meadows Subdivision where there are a lot of sales. As of 2023, Scotch Meadows is the new beginning/end of the 9 Mile.
Happy Shopping!
B. Starting in Gibbs/Corryton:
From Tazewell Pike, cross Emory Rd. (Harbison's Crossroads) then take the first left into Scotch Meadows Subdivision. As of Sept. 2023, Scotch Meadows is the first stop on the 9 Mile route. There are many sales in Scotch Meadows. Leaving Scotch Meadows, turn Left onto Emory Rd. and take the first Right onto Clapps Chapel Road at Clapps Chapel Methodist Church. Glance left toward Gibbs Estates S/D across from Clapps Chapel Church because there may be sales there too. Then continue about a mile until Clapps Chapel Rd. ends into Ridgeview Rd. At this intersection, you may see signs pointing to the Left toward the "dead end" part of Ridgeview Rd. that is less than a mile long. Otherwise, turn Right onto Ridgeview Rd. This may sound complicated, but we always have signs at the intersections to help you stay on the path.

Finally, turn Left onto Old Tazewell Pike and shop to the end of Old Tazewell Pike which ends at Tazewell Pike or Murphy Rd.
