Another great 2+ mile hike - it's all paved except for the last little bit. You get to sightsee the beautiful homes while you hike up to top. You get a great view of Whiteside Mountain from the top as well. Bring a snack to enjoy the view!

About 45 minutes with a drive thru the Historic Horse Cove - this road does turn to dirt. Stop at Pothole Falls and take a dip in the river or do the Chattanooga Loop for hiking. If you have AllTrails you can type that in to find directions. Or let me know and I'll be happy to send you pin

Yellow Mountain via Cloud Catcher Ln trail is only about 2.5 miles out & back - it's a steep steady incline but very doable for novice hikers. The view from the top is worth the hike! I always pack a lunch to take a break and enjoy the views for awhile. If you need directions, don't hesitate to reach out.

High Falls Trail via Ralph Andrews Park - where you start on the trailhead is right next to Lake Glenville so you get a great view of that as well. The hike is 1.5 miles out & back, in which you are going down the whole way - the hike back out is steep but there are tons of steps. Worth the hike and I recommend brining some snacks to enjoy at the waterfalls for awhile before heading back out.

Pretty much any of the Restaurants in town require a reservation weeks in advance during the busy season (May thru December). So make sure you plan ahead in advance or prepare to wait for up to an hour for seating.
