The Talladega National Forest is a favorite of nature lovers in Montgomery. In addition to offering a varied assortment of outdoor recreational activities, this is a place that just brims with irresistible natural beauty. The Cheaha Wilderness area of the forest is not only beautiful, but offers an unmatched opportunity for adventures like hiking and camping. The views are quite panoramic largely due to the valleys that follow the crest of the ridge on the mountainside. Make sure to remember to bring your camera!

Montgomery does have its share of the unexpected, and a prime example of that is the MOOseum. Sponsored by the Alabama Cattlemen's Association, this free educational center is located near the State Capitol and utilizes videos, exhibits and pieces of memorabilia to underscore the importance of cows and cattle. The back half of the museum attraction features a big amusement area that has a play kitchen, rodeo gear and saddles and a big stuffed cow. The kids will just love it!

An ever-changing inventory, a wide selection of collectable and vintage items, and some of the friendliest people in Montgomery can all be found at Montgomery Antique Galleries.

Surprise is the rule of the day here, as you will be delighted with the incredible selection of fine antique furniture, housewares, and much more. Plus, you can also have your lamps and crystal repaired or your mirrors re-silvered while you shop.
