Review & FAQ:
The Lookout Mountain Incline Railway played an important role in the American Civil War. After the war, tourists began to visit the area at the top of the mountain to see the sites of the famous battles as well as the Natural Bridge, Lula Lake, Whiteside Park, and other places of natural beauty in the area.
A luxury hotel was built at the summit of the mountain and a railroad was built to reach the hotel. After 100 years of operation, the railway ride up to the top of the mountain is still a popular attraction in the area.
