Alabama Bucket List: North

This is the final installment of our Alabama Bucket List series. All attractions were found in the 2018 Alabama Travel Guide.

Bridgeport

  • Russell Cave National Monument: Another sites for our National Park Passport

Florence

  • Muscle Shoals National Heritage Area: This area was created to preserve the music, Native American heritage and Tennessee River in the area.

Fort Payne

  • Little River Canyon National Preserve: This looks like a beautiful waterfall filled area.

Gadsen

  • Noccalula Falls Park: This park is home to a 90 ft waterfall

Geraldine

  • High Falls Park: Another waterfall! This one has a pedestrian bridge over it.

Huntsville

  • U.S. Space and Rocket Center: Museum dedicated to the U. S. space program

Oakville

  • Jesse Owens Memorial Park and Museum: A museum dedicated to the barrier breaking athlete.

Phil Campbell

  • Dismals Canyon: This is a National Natural Landmark and one of a few places where an insect called dismalites can be found.

Scottsboro

  • Unclaimed Baggage Center: This is where all lost luggage goes to be sold after the search for it’s owners go incomplete.

Tuscumbia

  • Ivy Green: Helen Keller’s Birthplace and Home
  • Rattlesnake Saloon: This is another restaurant, which I don’t normally include on a list, but this one was too unique to pass up as it’s located under a giant rock.

That’s all for Alabama folks. Stay tuned for either Florida or Mississippi next. Not sure which travel guide will reach me first!
