ereks mom Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 What is there for a family with teens to do in Chattanooga, TN, that is free or nearly free (<$20 for 4 people)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ecj98 Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 There are lots of great hiking trails - Cloudland Canyon is one of our favorites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
runmiarun Posted July 9, 2010 Share Posted July 9, 2010 We visited the two civil war battlefields that are part of the National Park Service (my brain has stopped working temporarily so I can't remember actual place names) and were free. They were in GA but only a short drive from Chattanooga. We also took a picnic lunch to the park across the pedestrian bridge. They have a huge water fountain that you can play in plus a cheap carousel for riding with a breeze. You might also want to check with a local outfitter. We saw several groups kayaking on the river and thought it might be fun to try when our boys are older. If you go to the visitor's center, they have a driving tour of Lookout Mountain that is pretty neat if the boys are into old battlefields. If you need cheap eats, the Mellow Mushroom downtown was a great cheap find for us. DH and I split a large one-topping pizza for under $10 and had half leftover since the large was LARGE.
