Perched on top of Lookout Mountain, Mentone, AL is a sleepy town that boasts the highest elevation in Alabama.

Many of the town's buildings have looked the same since they were built in the 19th century, and while you won't find any big-name stores or restaurants here, you can find everything you need at the quaint Menton Market.

Pick up supplies for a picnic lunch and head out to the breathtaking Desoto Falls for the afternoon, then make your way back into town to tour the historic St. Joseph's on the Mountain Church.
