If you’re searching for a day-trip destination, we’ve got a couple of tips. Located 30 miles away, Gadsden is worth hopping in the car for. Noccalula Falls Park ought to be at the top of your to-do list here. Gadsden Mall and Gadsden Kiwanis Park are excellent attractions too. Locals are also likely to point you toward Rome, 50 miles away. If you can only see one thing here, make sure it’s Rome-Floyd ECO Center. (But we’re also huge fans of Beaa Country Club and Ridge Ferry Park.)
