Lookout Mountain was the site of brief skirmish during the climax of the Second Great War. In 1943, the Confederate States Army stationed artillery units on the mountain to resist the United States Army's advance on Chattanooga. However, these positions were neutralized by US paratroopers, and the mountain was captured by US forces, who used it to bombard the interior of Georgia.

From Rock City, it is said that seven U.S. states can be seen: Tennessee, Kentucky, Virginia, South Carolina, North Carolina, Georgia and Alabama. In reality, on very clear days, some mountains in the Knoxville area of Tennessee can be seen at a distance of about 100 miles, but the curvature of the earth's surface lowers anything in Kentucky, South Carolina or Virginia to below the horizon. Nearby are Georgia's Cloudland Canyon and Cloudland Canyon State Park. The mountain, which hosts the nation's largest hang gliding school and Covenant College, is one of the Chattanooga area's most visited tourist attractions.
