Chattanooga, TN Hidden Gems

Lookout Mountain Attractions

Lovers Leap Views at Rock City

Flying Saucer House

Not open to the public, it is a drive by sight to see while traveling on Signal Mountain. Shaped like a flying saucer, it is elevated on four metal legs and has some stairs leading up to it for an entry. People visiting Chattanooga should drive by this house just to see one of the most unique houses in the country.

Cravens House

If you are going to Lookout Mountain for the sights listed above, be sure to drive up to the Cravens House. It is a historical house that was used as headquarters for both Union and Confederate forces in the Chattanooga area at some point during the Civil War. It was burned down by the Union but was rebuilt by Cravens after the war ended.

Chattanooga Nature Center

The Chattanooga Nature Center is probably the most popular of the places listed here, but it still does not get the attention that it merits. You can see one of the country's largest tree house, red wolves (one of America's most endangered species) and walk down the boardwalk and enjoy the beautiful area that the Chattanooga Nature Center has to offer.

Some of the best things in Chattanooga aren't plastered on billboards and barns, but are hidden away in little known areas. Enjoy the sights in Chattanooga, but be sure to visit these lesser known, but still interesting, spots. Get a real taste of Chattanooga culture.
