This autumn it will be two years since I've moved to Alabama from Texas. It's been fun exploring a state I had no previous experience with. I have discovered a very green state with some nice landscapes with mountains, waterfalls, covered bridges, caves, and beaches. I thought I would share some hiking spots and some other worthwhile places (including some places I intend to visit). Lawnstarter.com recently aggregated a list of the best hiking cities in the country, and Huntsville was the first Southeast city (outside of Florida) on it.
Hiking
The highest elevation in Alabama and is part of the Appalachian mountain range
Walls of Jericho
Waterfalls
Kymulga Covered Bridge in Childersburg
Swann Bridge in Blount County
Beaches
I live a few hours from the coast so I will be honest haven't spent too much time there but I did enjoy some time Gulf Shores State Park
Other Notable Places
Stephen's Cave Gap
Excited to explore more of this state!
