Where: Lookout Mountain, Georgia
Just six miles from Chattanooga, Tennessee, this 200-million-year-old rock formation holds plenty of exciting adventures, including a 90-foot waterfall, suspended bridge, gardens, Fairyland Caverns for the kids, and a 1,000-ton balanced rock. Once you’ve finished exploring the trails that wind through these attractions and the more than 400 species of plants and trees, you’ll be rewarded with stunning views at the top of Lookout Mountain, where you can see seven different states. Depending on when you visit, there are plenty of special events to add even more excitement to your trip, including the Enchanted Garden of Lights during the holiday season, the Southern Blooms Festival, and Summer Music Weekends.
Insider Tip: While you’re in the area, you should also visit Ruby Falls. Located 1,120 feet below Lookout Mountain, it’s the world’s tallest and deepest waterfall.
