You’ll see why people from all over the world come to call the Dunlap area home as soon as you crest the western edge of Walden’s Ridge to take in the breathtaking view.

Dunlap lies in the center of the Sequatchie Valley, which is four to five miles wide for most of its 62-mile length. A drive north on U.S. Highway 127 will take you from the Chattanooga area through the pastoral beauty of the central and upper Sequatchie Valley.
