Things To Do
Tennessee Aquarium
The mission of the Tennessee Aquarium is to connect people with nature and empower them to make informed decisions about water and wildlife. Within our two buildings, you’ll trace the path of water from the mountains to the sea. Come face-to-face with the fascinating native animals that live in our backyards and the amazing creatures that thrive in some of the most remote locations on Earth. We celebrate the rich biodiversity of the Southeast through our exhibits and are actively engaged in preserving and restoring that biodiversity through our work in the field. The Aquarium’s research arm, the Tennessee Aquarium Conservation Institute, has a focused expertise in restoring freshwater ecosystems and helping people appreciate the need for environmental health in our region.

Ruby Falls
Ruby Falls is a stunning underground waterfall located inside Lookout Mountain in Chattanooga, Tennessee. Discovered in 1928 by Leo Lambert, the falls were named after his wife, Ruby. The 145-foot waterfall is the tallest and deepest underground waterfall in the United States that is open to the public. To reach the falls, visitors take a glass-front elevator 260 feet down into the mountain and walk along a scenic cavern trail. The guided tour reveals fascinating rock formations like stalactites and stalagmites, all leading to the breathtaking centerpiece: Ruby Falls, illuminated for dramatic effect. The cave maintains a comfortable temperature of around 60°F year-round. Outside the cave, guests can enjoy panoramic views from Lookout Mountain Tower, zipline adventures, and other attractions. Ruby Falls is not only a geological wonder but also a popular destination for families, nature lovers, and adventure seekers alike.
