Monte Sano is a state park that visitors and residents go to when they want some fresh air, mineral springs — and more importantly — amazing views. On top of the mountain, you can see up to twenty miles of hiking trails covered in a sea of trees. This is a great area for a family to have some fun and spend time outside together.

Of course, Huntsville would not be Huntsville without the U.S. Space and Rocket Center. Instead of the greenery being in the spotlight, Huntsville’s own Saturn 1B rocket is the reason this landmark makes it on this list. Standing 224 feet in the air, the Saturn 1B sits high enough for everyone to see.

Location: 1 Tranquility Base, Huntsville, AL 35805
