My husband and I loves traveling to Gatlinburg, TN and everyone we talked
to said we just had to take a detour to Chattanooga (or Lookout
Mountain) and we did. We really enjoyed the walking trails and seeing the beautiful scenery. The trails, gardens,
waterfall, and natural structures were amazing. We spend the whole day in hiking. When we reach the top
, there is an observation deck for more great views. Follow the park around and
you will see the other side of the mountain views, just beautiful. I loved that they've kept the mountain so clean and accessible.

Lover's Leap at Lookout Mountain Georgia .
According to folklore, a young Indian couple fell in love but could not
be together because they belonged to tribes that were at war with each
other. They leap to their deaths from this ledge in despair. A very sad
story for this beautiful scenery.

| Lover's Leap |
 |
| This high, wide plateau located on top of a mountain. |
 |
| Below Lover's Leap is a large man-made waterfall fountain.
You can get a good view of it as the trail circles around, after leaving
Lover's Leap. |
Do you see the Seven States? Ok, you're in Georgia, so you don't have to look very far to see that
one. Tennessee is just to your left (you cross the state line as
you drive up to the park). Alabama isn't far, and
the Smoky Mountains of North Carolina . I
think the biggest stretch is Kentucky and Virginia.

| The top of Lookout Mountain that has a view to die for. |

| What a beautiful place to visit. The walk was fun and interesting. The view is unique and a must see. |
We really enjoyed this place. Nice hike around the property with amazing rocks formation and gardens to the beautiful overlooks. Highly recommend it when your visiting East Tennesse or Atlanta.
Wow I love the pictures. The picture of that cliff is goregous. I would love to go there.
