About This Spring
## Overview Hidden Manna is a public drinking spring located along Yokley Road in the rural countryside of Giles County, Tennessee, near the small town of Lynnville. The spring emerges through a PVC pipe, providing a steady flow of water that visitors have reported tastes clean and fresh. Nestled in the rolling hills of southern Middle Tennessee, this modest roadside spring carries a name that evokes biblical imagery — "hidden manna" referring to a divine, concealed blessing — a fitting description for a natural water source tucked away in the Tennessee countryside. Giles County sits atop limestone bedrock, part of the Highland Rim geological region of Tennessee. Springs in this area typically flow through layers of Ordovician and Silurian limestone, which can naturally filter the water and impart a clean, mineral taste. The region is home to numerous springs that have served local communities for generations. ## Directions 1. The spring is located at **4585 Yokley Road, Lynnville, TN 38472**. 2.

The surrounding area reflects the quiet, pastoral character of rural Giles County — expect open farmland, wooded hillsides, and minimal foot traffic. As with any natural spring, water quality can vary with weather and seasonal conditions. The flow may increase after heavy rains, which can also temporarily affect clarity.
