Riverwood Murals Scavenger Hunt

Sep 30

Looking for a fun, free adventure? Head to the Kimbrough Greenway Trailhead at 8108 Wolf River Boulevard in Germantown, where a collection of murals has turned a walk along the Greenway into an outdoor art gallery.

Painted in 2026 as part of the Riverwood Murals project, these ten murals were created by artists from Memphis and beyond. Each one tells a story about the Wolf River and the living things that share it with us. Some murals are bright and bold, some are calm and dreamy, and a few hide little surprises you’ll only notice if you look closely.

That’s where this scavenger hunt comes in. Below you’ll find one question for each mural. Some ask you to count, some ask you to search, and some ask you to use your imagination.

Ready, explorers? Let’s go!
