ABOUT VALLEY HEAD

Valley Head was established in 1922 and is located in northeast Alabama. Native Americans originally lived in the Valley Head area. It is said that with the Indian Removal Act of 1830, many Cherokee Indians found the Valley Head area a great place to hide. With caverns (such as Sequoyah) and the rolling hills, many Cherokees were able to avoid the Trail of Tears. Being successful farmers and hunters, Native Americans of that time would have found survival in the Valley Head area an easy task. Valley Head is more than just the "Gateway to the camps and Lookout Mountain". If you are searching for a nice Sunday afternoon drive or a place to have a weekend get away, Valley Head is the place. This little town offers a wonderful family restaurant, the Tiger's Inn.  Local retailers include Sweet Repeats and the Dollar General. We have several services including a law firm and a walk-in clinic.  We also support many local businesses such as Fritz Structural Steel and Inspec Tech. Our beautiful town park is just around the corner on AL Highway 117 and offers a walking trail, picnic facilities, several pavilions, bathrooms, a basketball court and a wonderful playground for children of all ages. If your a tourist or looking to make Valley Head your home, you will find the scenic beauty and quality of life just what you are looking for.
