    Fun for the whole family! We had family in town over the holidays so we decided to take them to Chattanooga to see Lookout Mountain. We piled up in two cars and were there within two hours. I came here years ago with my family and from what we remembered, we didn't have to pay a fee to see the attractions. However, we paid ~$25 per adult this time. The fee just gives you access. Just a very short, easy hike and you're at the top of the mountain where lover's leap is. The view is breathtaking. You can even see 7 states from there (see photos). You can take a longer way, by squeezing in through Fat Man Squeeze where you'll see the stunning Ruby Falls and go through a cave where there's more attractions. I recommend doing that to get your money's worth. What's great is they have a stroller and handicap access!

    BEA-U-TIFUL! As much as I would like to post more pics, pictures will do it no Justice! This beaut is something that you just should encounter in person. As part of my Tennessee trip, we stopped here to just see the views. Prepare before you come. Make sure you have on comfy shoes, and dressed for the weather. There is a lot of walking....A LOT! There were a few spots where you walk between these rocks and you have to walk sideways. Anxiety beware! Claustrophobics, be cautious! It is surely a slim path. At one point, there is an area where you can view 7 states. Kentucky, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Georgia and Alabama! It was pretty sweet. Of course, all you see is trees, but I trust that they didn't lie to me. I mean, they had no reason to, lol! Go, if you can! Enjoy the sites, and get your sweat on. Cause most likely, you will sweat!

    The history of these trails is fascinating!

    Love this place! Well organized and a fun easy hike. If you have littles or mobility issues there is plenty you can see and do. If you enjoy walking for 2 hours, you'll enjoy seeing lots of different paths, a waterfall, and rock formations.

    Loving this place! The view of the waterfall was the best. There is also an area where you can see 7 states! We had a great time here with family and will definitely come back after my kids are a bit older.

    Beautiful hike to the water fall known as Lovers Leap. You see some really cool stuff here.

    Amazing services,beautiful I loved taking my family here. It was a very pretty site to see, but there was a lot of walking so wear comfy shoes.

    This is another fun place to visit and go for a hike. They've got different trails & viewpoints like lovers leap. There's statues on the mountain to take pictures of and people bring their dogs, etc. You'll want to pack plenty of water & bring a camera. It gets crowded during the summer especially around any of the landmarks so be aware of that before you go. There's a ton to do in the area as it's a tourist hotspot.

    We only had a full day to spend in the area . ... like many others we came to see the solar eclipse and we spent two night i n Chattanooga .. travel took most of the first day so only 1 full day to see and do as much as could. The aquarium, lookout mountain, the incline, Ruby falls and Rock City were all on my list to try to do. We did it all in one day but it was full tiring day and we had to rush to get it done. we had a car and started at Rock city, the view from up the mountain was quite nice. then went to Ruby falls, and the incline .. then rushed to the aquarium. Rock city and Ruby falls are not for the handicapped. There were some places at Rock City that were narrow and I'd day their is a size limit. With that being said i'm not a small person but if you are 300-500 pounds it may be a real problem. YOu can't take strollers or wheel chairs.

    Sadly it was foggy the day we went but it was still beautiful! I love that you could go at your own pace and they had a handicap / stroller option. I would 100% recommend this to any family visiting the area.

    There is a lot to lookout mountain. It has shaped history in many ways, the geography played a huge factor in the civil war. In addition, famous historical figures have visited lookout mountain, for example Johnny Cash went to lookout mountain during his senior trip. There are 3 main parts- ruby falls, the incline tram and rock city. Also there is a national military park nearby.

    Breathtaking views over the city. Was absolutely gorgeous scenery and wish I could go back

    This is a great day-trip adventure for anyone! They even have a ADA trail. We enjoyed walking along the trails and seeing the amazing rock formations and waterfalls. There is music playing as you walk and inside the different caves it was magical! There are several resting stops and restrooms along the way. Also therat least two cafes, one even atop the lookout. Would definitely recommend this sight-seeing stop.

    Lula Falls - Lula Falls was one of the better waterfalls I have recently visited located in Lookout Mountain, Georgia beside Chattanooga, TN.

    Here at Lula Lake Land Trust in Lookout Mountain, Georgia (20 miles southwest of Chattanooga,…read moreTennessee), this is a fun little journey, a 4-mile out and back or roundtrip hike getting to experience the prized highlight here...120-foot Lula Falls. The area around Lula Falls is private property. The Board of Trustees are sensitive about protecting the ecology of this land and so...visiting capacity is greatly reduced. In order to visit, you must book a reservation online ahead of time at lulalake.org. It's $16 entry per car, regardless of the number of passengers. Visitation dates are totally out of the norm, outside guests can enter the grounds on the first and last weekends of each month. That's 4 days per month and 48 days out of the entire year! Eye opening when you think about that statistic within the bigger picture of making plans to see Lula Falls. The pathway trail to reach Lula Falls is moderately easy. Follow the gravel dirt road for the first 1.5 out of 2 miles. Along the way, on the left hand side of the trail is a terrific overlook of Lula Falls. Although you can enter down to the falls taking Old Falls Trail, those stair steps are pretty steep. It was suggested to me to walk just a little further down to Lula Falls Trail and follow that pathway to Lula Falls. Upon arriving at the heart of it all, Lula Falls is mighty impressive, a magical wonder of a waterfall plunging 120 feet in a straight free-fall. While the sun was shining, I even caught a rainbow at the base of the falls which made the setting here somewhat of a pause in time moment. Backdrops like these don't come around often, I was relishing it all. Feeling thankful and blessed would describe things well. There's no swimming at the falls and I respect that, just enjoying the beauty of the falls was good enough for me. On the return trip back towards the entrance, you can follow the Bluff Trail above the forest tree-line to a panoramic clearing from high atop Lookout Mountain. It's a good chance to view the Chattanooga Valley from an undisturbed vantage point. You can finish out the hike taking the Bluff Trail almost all the way back to the start, or the Middle Trail is just as good too. But if you enjoy hiking in nature, either pathway will get the job done. Overall, getting to venture out to Lula Lake Land Trust and hike to Lula Falls was a joyous occasion for me, someone who loves the great outdoors and takes nothing for granted. Thank you for having me.

    Beautiful hike at Lula Falls. It is about 4 miles round trip. We went in May when it wasn't hot but…read morewas still warm enough that my jacket didn't stay on long. The trails are well maintained and easy except for the last quarter mile to the lower falls. Worth the trek down to the lower falls area. A bit of a challenge for this 62 year old but slow and steady won the day. We enjoyed a nice lunch in the picnic area near the stairs to the lower falls.

    I didn't expect to enjoy Rock City as much as I did and I almost didn't come bc it was 97 degrees…read morelast month while I was in town. I'm so glad I googled and saw that it's about 90% shade in the beautiful natural rock formations and caves that make up the majority of the park. Plenty of parking, charming location, and gorgeous natural scenery and rock with the park built to complement and draw upon what nature has already done. I was alone, but plan to bring my two-year old back in a few years when she's old enough to enjoy this, I think she will absolutely love it. Lover's Leap is stunning and my favorite of the 4 paths was Hall of the Mountain King. This place is amazing. Touristy? Sure. But worth it. You can tell the amount of attention to detail and love that went into developing every part of this place. Nothing is looked over. Even the sidewalks have small design elements built in. Love! This brought me back to the years of my childhood spent climbing rocks and building dams in our creek in rural Virginia. Let the imagination run wild!

    The hike doesn't feel like a hike at all. Stairs are built in. Creative and fun. I feel like this…read moreis a place where artist came together and was able to express their creativity. The only notice I'll give is that there are some points where you have to be thin to pass through. I am sure there is another way around but I didn't look.
