Ruby Falls is a 145-foot underground waterfall inside Lookout Mountain near Chattanooga, Tennessee, discovered in 1928 and opened to the public in 1930. Visitors descend by glass-front elevator and walk a guided cavern trail about 1,120 feet below the surface to reach the falls. The site also offers a seasonal zipline course, scenic overlooks, dining and treehouse lodging.
