Best of Chattanooga - Rock City/Ruby Falls Giveaway

Happy Earth Day! Since I am focusing on Chattanooga this week, what would be a better way of celebrating than mentioning the best local natural attractions? You can't get within 100 miles of Chattanooga without noticing signs for Rock City and Ruby Falls. Ruby Falls is an incredible waterfall 1120 feet underground. As breathtaking as it is, the rest of the tour is just as fun. The tour guide points out amazing geological formations within the mountain and stunning scenic views from the top. There are activities just for the kids too, like gemstone panning and a fun forest playground.


Rock City is a walk through quiet woodland paths and gardens amongst magnificent ancient rock formations. We go at least once a year. There is a section underground called "Fairy Land Caverns" that Lydia absolutely loves. If you come to Chattanooga, this is the must see.


Want to go? I am going to award one randomly selected winner a family pass to Rock City and a family pass to Ruby Falls. These tickets will allow entrance for 2 adults and 2 children and can be used on the same day or different days if you prefer. This is over a $1oo value!
To enter, simply comment on this post, and please only enter if you live in the Eastern Tennessee areas or you will be in the Chattanooga area within the next few months so that you can redeem your prize. For an extra entry, comment in a separate post that you are a Natalie's Sentiments subscriber/reader/follower. I will announce the winner on April 29th. Good luck!

    I have been to Rock City to see the Christmas lights. It is really fun & they do a great job. I'd love to see it during the spring/summer months too.

    This sounds right up our alley! I am the mother of quite the outdoorsman and two little boys. We could easily get to Chattanooga for this one and would love to spend some time there when the boys get out of school. Count me in!

    I've never been to Ruby Falls but it looks cool. Rock City does a great job with their Christmas light display but it would be nice to see it during the day. Thanks for doing all these fun local giveaways!

    Is Ruby Falls named after the song "Ruby Falls" by Guster?

    Rock City and Ruby Falls are 2 of the attractions in chattanooga we haven't seen yet, because of the $100 value mentioned in your post. We would LOVE to take the kids on a coupe weekend (or weekday) adventures!!!
