Lula Lake Land Trust - Hiking area in Lookout Mountain - 5000 Lula Lake Rd, USA

What a beautiful, unspoiled place! No crowds, no trash lying around. Probably due to reservation requirements and limited spots. LOVE this! Beautiful views from the bluffs, gorgeous rock formations, fantastic waterfall. Different hikes for different abilities. Really helpful staff at the entrance. The map was just a bit confusing because the directional signs aren't super clear. Still a fantastic little piece of nature to enjoy.

A hidden gem and great alt to busier state parks. The timed entry system reduces foot traffic making hiking more enjoyable. We took the middle trail to the falls to get off the gravel road and I would consider it easy. There were several other trails available to add-on if desired. The staff working the parking lot were able to give good recommendations. There are two areas with falls. The second, tall waterfall does require a steep descent/climb I would consider moderate to difficult, could be hard on the knees.

Such a beautiful and peaceful place to hike. The hike to the lake is pretty much level. I would say with or without much hiking experience anyone would enjoy a visit here. It’s open the first and last weekend of every month.

We have wanted to hike here forever and finally made plans to do so. Sooooo glad and we'll be back. Easy, moderate and hard trails; can do all at your own pace. We were with our adventure seeking son and took a few of the hard trails; kicked our butts but glad we did it. Beautiful waterfall area where you can sit and catch your breath and rest and chill and take in the beauty yof the area. They offer guided hikes here also (need to make a reservation) where you will be given tidbits of information on how the Trust came to be and some fun facts.

The trail was really nice! It was gravel until the falls. I was very pleasantly surprised. The people working there were really kind as well! Dog friendly as long as they’re on leashes. The view from the bluff is also nice!

You can go and see the waterfall...which I definitely recommend doing at least once, and then you can hike the quieter trails along the creek and ridge and appreciate the conservation work that is in progress here. The beautiful riparian ecosystem includes hemlock trees that the Trust is working very hard to preserve.

Beautiful waterfall and trails. So glad to finally have had the opportunity to visit.

First thing to know, go onto eventbrite and get your ticket earlier than the day of. We drove down once and were disappointed we didn't know. Secondly, allocate about 2 hours at a minimum for the walk if you have kids or babies. I think I racked in about 17000 steps. Definitely suggest bringing food and eating at the picnic tables at the first falls. Third my 8 and 9 year old said it was worth it. So take your kids!!! Highly recommend. I let the kids get as close as they wanted and it was so fun! All of the mini waterfalls and cliffs made for fun little stops on the way down.
