In 1863, Union and Confederate forces fought for control of Chattanooga, known as the Gateway to the Deep South. The Confederates were victorious at nearby Chickamauga in September. However, renewed fighting in Chattanooga that November provided Union troops victory and control of the city. The 5,300 acre Chickamauga Battlefield is the scene of the last major Confederate victory of the American Civil War.

High atop Lookout Mountain’s most northern tip, there’s Point Park. Built in 1905 by the Army Corp of Engineers to commemorate the Battle Above the Clouds. fought during the Civil War in 1863. Although Most of the fighting took place on the mountainside and not in the vicinity of the park.
Carter Stevenson, commander of the three brigades that defended the area had positioned cannons atop Lookout Mountain to aid in its defense and to fire upon the advancing Union Army in Chattanooga. Once the cannons became ineffective, they were withdrawn at the end of that day, November 24, 1863, Stevenson was encamped in the area of the park, surrounded on three sides by a force ten times the size of his. Upon orders from General Braxton Bragg, Commander, of the Army of Tennessee, Stevenson withdrew his men southwest to Chickamauga Creek and Missionary Ridge.
Inside Point Park here, are numerous monuments to the men who fought and died. The New York Peace Memorial features a Union and a Confederate soldier shaking hands as a sign of reconciliation, and a small museum at the Ochs Overlook houses items of interest of the Civil War.
From Point Park it is possible to access many other sites through an intricate maze of trails. You can walk to Sunset Rock, where James Longstreet watched the Union Army march unopposed into Lookout Valley during the operations associated with the Battle of Browns Ferry. (1.1 miles,), walk to the Cravens House, 1.5 miles, or follow the eastern rim of the mountain. This trail is exceptionally beautiful at sunrise. They say.
An interesting part of the park that is often overlooked is the rock wall around the park and intricate design of the entrance. The Historic image of the gates of the Park, was constructed and modeled after the US Army Corps of Engineers Insignia. Just outside of the park is a visitor center with exhibits on the Civil War campaign for Chattanooga, including a large painting of The Battle Above the Clouds.

ROCK CITY GARDENS LOOKOUT MOUNTAIN GEORGIA

“As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases.”
Rock City Gardens in Georgia will amaze you. Located atop Lookout Mountain just 6 miles from downtown Chattanooga, Rock City is a true marvel of nature featuring massive ancient rock formations, gardens with over 400 native plant species, and breathtaking See 7 States panoramic views. Rock City Tennessee address1400 Patten Rd, Lookout Mountain, GA 30750
Take an unforgettable journey along the Enchanted Trail where each step reveals natural beauty and wonders along the woodland path. Experience the magic of Fairyland Caverns and Mother Goose Village, visit one of our regional gift shops and dine at the Big Rock Grill. Rock City is splendid year-round - Each season there's a new reason to visit! Because of Rock City's closeness to Chattanooga and ONLY A FEW MILES UP the road FROM RUBY FALLS which is in Tennessee, it is frequently believed to be in Tennessee. The tour of Rock City begins in the aptly named Garden's Gateway on the far side of the Rock City gift shop. An ADA-accessible entrance is down the hall to the right of the Gateway. The Grand Corridor is an excellent way to acclimatized your group to the rigors of walking in Rock City. The pathway occasionally narrows and there are some steps, but face it, if you have a problem here, bail out and take the ADA accessible (green) trail. At the Needle's Eye the trail narrows significantly, and walking sideways may be required, before it opens into Deer Park. Goblins' Underpass is a reference to Fairyland, later on trail. On the left after Goblins Underpass a set of rock steps takes visitors up to Legacy Lane. This is a section of the ADA accessible trail that leads to the 1932 Rock City entrance. It can also be used to get to the Birds of Prey show.
A choice presents itself before you enter Rock City's most scenic area. For those free-spirits willing to throw caution to the wind, take the Swingalong Bridge, a solidly built swinging bridge with an excellent view of the Tennessee River valley on clear days. For those who want to keep a little earth under their feet choose the Stone Bridge, crafted from solid rock with an excellent view of the swinging bridge.
Across the bridge lies was is collectively known as Seven States Plaza, featuring what is one of the best-known scenic views in the world. Peering into Georgia's Ridge and Valley section featuring long mountains (like Taylor's Ridge) separated by well-defined valleys. Within the plaza is the See Seven States marker showing the approximate directions of the states. On a clear day (only about 10% are clear enough in the summer), a knowing eye can spot the Blue Ridge Mountains, the Cohutta Mountains and Rich Mountain in the southern Appalachian province.
Added to the plaza in 1991, the Seven States Flag Court has additional scenic views backed by the flags of each of the seven states. The following year the Cliff Terrace was added with food, a movie on Rock City, and amenities. In 2005 a pavilion was added to the plaza so Rock City could host larger events. Leaving the plaza the trail makes a dramatic drop into Fat Man's Squeeze before returning to the area near Seven States Plaza. Here is a dramatic view of some man-made falls and additional scenic views into Georgia's Valley and Ridge area. Continuing on, the 1000-ton Balanced Rock is the final natural attraction in Rock City. Watch for a shortcut shortly after Balanced Rock if you do not wish to see Fairyland Cavern. Frieda Carter loved the children's stories from her native Germany and created Fairyland Cavern as an homage to these tales in 1947. Garnet hired Atlanta sculptor Jesse Sanders to replicate the images of Frieda's childhood. Sanders first had to learn how to work with the relatively new concept of black light, which would allow the cavern to remain dark but light up the statues. In 1964 Sanders completed Mother Goose Village, based on the characters in various nursery rhymes.

Lookout Mountain, Tennessee and Chickamauga Battlefield, Georgia - Travels With Phil
Lookout Mountain, Tennessee and Chickamauga Battlefield, Georgia. This video looks at a really nice view and two Civil War battlegrounds just south of Chattanooga, Tennessee. Lookout Mountain overlooks the city of Chattanooga and the Tennessee River. It was also the site of a battle on November 24. 1863. The Chickamauga Battlefield is only a few miles away, just south of the Georgia state line. It was the scene of a Confederate victory on September 20, 1863. The number of Union losses were second only to those at Gettysburg. I also share a Cherokee story about how the hills and valleys were created. You can see all of my photos on my website at - I welcome your comments below (as long as the language is family-friendly). You are also welcome to share the link to this video. Travels with Phil copyrighted by Phil Konstantin - The photos and videos were taken in May 2016.
