Accessibility at Rock City
Rock City welcomes all explorers; we provide detailed accessibility guides to ensure every guest can enjoy the beauty and wonder of our mountaintop trails and gardens.
Rock City is a series of stone walking trails atop Lookout Mountain. The majority of the trails include steps with several including a large number of steep steps together. Due to the nature of these trails, wheelchairs and strollers are not allowed along many of the pathways. Please refer to the FAQs below and the Navigating Rock City page to better plan your visit.
Accessibility FAQs
Rock City is partially handicap accessible. Our entrance at Gardens Gateway leads to an ADA ramp that takes guests to Legacy Lane. This portion of the Enchanted Trail allows guests in wheelchairs or with limited mobility access to enjoy the overlook at Lover’s Leap and the Seven States Flag Court. The round trip distance is about 1/2 a mile.
Due to narrow passages and steep stairs, strollers are prohibited on Rock City’s Enchanted Trail. However, child backpacks or front carriers work well. Stroller parking is located in front of Garden’s Gateway Gift Shop – the entry and exit point for the Enchanted Trail.
