A neat way to get to the top of Lookout Mountain, one of Chattanooga's main attractions. This incline has beautiful views of the city and surrounding mountains that will start you on your next adventure at the top.
Journey deep inside historic Lookout Mountain to see the tallest and deepest underground waterfall open to the public in the United States! Descend 260 feet by glass-front elevator to explore ancient formations along the cavern trail to see the thundering falls.

Approximately 1/3 of a mile in length, this walking bridge spans the Tennessee River connecting Chattanooga's two halves.

Also be sure to check out the River Walk that parallels the river on both sides for more beautiful outdoor experiences.
Here is a list of great food recommendations for when you get hungry during your exploration of the city. State of Confusion: A local brewery with great drinks and unique hearty meals. Stir: A great lunch and dinner spot with very well done meals. Slightly classy and more expensive but worth every penny. Taco Mamacita: A taqueria with outstanding tacos, chips, and margaritas. Can't go wrong here and a staple of Julia's diet. Basecamp: A local burger and beer joint. Great food with outdoor seating. Fairly cheap and we frequent this place during the warmer months. Feed: A local lunch and dinner spot with hearty meals and a great, robust menu. Another spot that is hard to go wrong at. Clumpy's: A local ice cream chain that is absolutely amazing. Consider this to cool down and enjoy a treat.
