Chattanooga Vacations At a Glance

Best Time to Visit Chattanooga Tennessee
If you are interested in taking the shuttle up Lookout Mountain, it is recommended that you visit during the summer - the only time it runs. The worlds steepest incline railway, running from 3917 St. Elmo Ave. near the foot of the mountain (on bus route #14), runs all year long. January through March aren't the best months to visit, considering most of Chattanooga's attractions are outdoors. Try to visit during spring, summer, or even fall. Rated one of the top 25 Festivals in the Southeast, Riverbend takes place the second week of June; its a nine-day party with music, food, and family events. Click Here to find hotels in Chattanooga.
