We visited mid morning and the weather was perfect. The trail was clean and shady. We saw several friendly people along the way. We especially enjoyed the bridge over the lake.

Imagination Place

Imagination Place is designed primarily for children ages 2 through 10, The kids will delight in exploring KidsTown USA where everything is pint sized. Downstairs is a medical clinic, grocery store, construction pit and more. You can even hop in the back of the Red Cross ERV (emergency response vehicle) and make a disaster relief meal.Upstairs you can enjoy the turtle hospital featuring Madonna and Yoko our two Russian tortoises, then visit the farm. Next you'll be able to slide back down to the first floor through the tree house fort.We believe children learn through play and hope you'll visit us at Imagination Place Children's Museum where we're play unplugged!

Was in Gadsden for the lights at the falls. It had rained all day, and the kids were restless and had to get them out of the campers. A nice two hour break to let them run and play with the old town and ice encounter. Kids really enjoyed it and were tired when we went to dinner. For a smaller town, this is great place for the kids on a rainy day. Planning on going again next year for the lights and imagination station.

Lookout Mountain Parkway

The Lookout Mountain Parkway spans three states as it stretches across Lookout Mountain from Gadsden, Alabama to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Within its 93-miles, one will find waterfalls, canyons, scenic brow vistas, unique towns and villages, state and national parks and preserves, and many more natural wonders.

The Lookout Mountain Parkway which runs from Gadsden, AL to Chattanooga, TN atop the crest of Lookout Mountain is one of the most underrated, underappreciated, and unknown roads in the South. If you ride a motorcycle, do not pass up the opportunity to ride it if you are in the area. Along the route it's easy to visit Cloudland Canyon State Park in GA and DeSoto State Park in AL. Each park has adequate camping and cabin accommodations you'll find affordable.
