Lookout Mountain

Lookout Mountain is full of bragging rights experiences. People may not believe you when you tell them you took an elevator 26 stories below ground then walked deep into a cave past stalagmites, stalactites, and drapery formations to see the largest and deepest underground commercial waterfall in the United States, Ruby Falls. Above ground, it’s ok if you scream while your heart’s pumping on the...

St. Elmo

Nestled at the base of Lookout Mountain, St. Elmo is a surprising little town. On your way in, you will be greeted with the International Towing Museum. Wait… what??? Yes, a towing museum. The only one in the world to be exact. The first recovery vehicle was created in Chattanooga. The Museum features a replica of the first towing vehicle as well as vehicles from other countries and decades. Then...

MLK/UTC

Standing in front of the impressive, 42,000 sq. ft. “MLK Mural: We Will Not Be Satisfied Until” is powerful. Created in 2016 by world-renowned artist Meg Saligman, the mural is the largest in the Southeast, one of the five largest in the nation, and the first to wrap an entire city block. It is quite a sight and preserves our cultural heritage with lush colors and locally-sourced imagery of...

West Village

What was once a forgotten part of Chattanooga is now one of the most memorable areas of our downtown footprint. From delicious eateries to luxury hotels and events throughout the year, the incredibly walkable West Village is waiting for you. If you’re looking for a romantic spot to grab a bite, check out Paloma Bar de Tapas, the rooftop restaurant and bar at the Westin with views looking out at...

City Center

Some might say that Chattanooga's City Center is "where the magic happens" and we really can't argue with it. Chock full of local restaurants, shopping, and some of the coolest start-ups in town, it's the place to be. Be sure to visit Warehouse Row to get a peek at what’s inside. Pick out a new outfit at Anthropologie or lululemon athletica, a cool piece for your home at Revival, a latte from...

Bluff View Art District

Overlooking the Tennessee River, the Bluff View Art District provides some of the best scenery in the Tennessee Valley. Bite into hand-made chocolate filled with whiskey and sip on a steamy latte on the patio at Rembrandt’s Coffee House while literally smelling the next batch of beans being roasted a few hundred feet away. Choosing between the create-your-own-combo house-made angel hair pasta with...

The area surrounding Ross’s Landing offers paved trails — even a zig-zag one — and nearby access to the Bluff View Art District, Walnut Street Bridge and everything downtown has to offer. Start your riverfront...

Northshore

The grass is always greener on the North Shore! Maybe not greener, but definitely more of it! The North Shore is connected to downtown by 4 bridges, including the Walnut Street Bridge which is one of the longest pedestrian-only bridges in the world. You can toggle between the shores of the Tennessee River by walking, using a bike from Bike Chattanooga or taking the free electric shuttle. So easy....

Signal Mountain

That other mountain community gets all the love, but Signal Mountain is a dream for those seeking to get away from it all and deep into the natural beauty of the region while still staying close to the city and all it has to offer. Named one of the “best places to live in Tennessee,” the mountaintop community is also a great place to visit. One word: trails. Just 20-minutes from downtown, Signal...
