Immerse Yourself in a Beautiful Underground World at Ruby Falls

Once you look around the amazing room you are standing in, you will also notice that it has been slowly carved out through the erosion process from the falls. A fabulous display of Mother Nature at its best.

Once it’s time to make the walk back to the surface, you travel the same way you came, but the experience is completely different. The rock formations, pools of water, and overall view of the cavern is all new.

Another elevator ride takes you to the exit of the cavern where you can view the Tennessee River Valley from the Lookout Mountain Tower. The children can even release a bit of energy by playing on the Fun Forest Play Ground before you head into the souvenir shop and back to the car.
