Before you leave, be sure to stop in the gift shop to check out all the charming gnomes! There are also three restaurants, a Starbucks, and a fudge shop. While you walk the 4,100 ft trail you will come across so many unique gems! There are rocks to squeeze through, viewing points to see 7 states, fairyland caverns (with the CUTEST fairytale setups), caves, and a BEAUTIFUL waterfall. We did show up a bit late (thanks traffic), but they still let us in and we were met with very small crowds. Insider tip: We reserved our tickets for the last time slot (5:45). If your plans change, you can easily change your ticket time (for free) through their website. They have timed-entry slots every 15 minutes. You can easily make a timed reservation through Rock City Gardens website. Now tourists can wander through this magical city trail built upon (and through) the rocks.
In 1932, the same couple that created the development opened the doors to Rock City Gardens. Throughout the years, the area was popular with hikers and geologists and eventually, there was a residential development built on top of the mountain. There have been diary entries dated as early as 1823 describing the boulders (now known as Rock City) on top of a mountain and evidence that shows Native American inhabitants.
It is an extremely popular tourist location that recieves almost 600,000 visitors each year. Rock City is a magical 4,100 ft trail that weaves in and out of natural rock.
