Cravens House Trail Professional Review and Guide

"This hike starts at view-laden Point Park on Lookout Mountain. Wander through the monuments and cannon formations near inspiring views. Drop to Ochs Museum and incredible vistas of Chattanooga.

A steady downgrade takes you to the Cravens House, an important Civil War site, with its own panoramas. From there, take a narrow foot access up to the Mountain Beautiful Trail, returning to Point Park. Th e hike’s short distance makes the 500-foot elevation change more tolerable to novice walkers."
