The 256 Guide
Sightseeing
The Space and Rocket Center is one of the biggest attractions for visitors. It is a must-see if it is your first trip to Huntsville. I personally recommend the planetarium located in the museum.

Check out Big Spring Park, grab some food at one of the local options and then check out a Havoc game or a concert at the VBC. You can get anywhere on foot from the park.

This is a 30 minute drive, but it's a great visit if you have a day with kids. It is a 1-2 hour visit and everyone will have a good time. There is a Mellow Mushroom and Moe's Barbeque just a quick walk from the museum. I recommend the Brick Deli as well for lunch. There is really no need to venture any farther into Decatur, the museum and a good meal are all you need, and it's just across the river.

Fitness
For our travelers that are members of the Crossfit community, this is the Huntsville original. There are A LOT of class options to choose every day of the week. There are other standard gyms to choose from as well, but this is the Crossfit option I recommend.

My personal favorite for a great meal. Lunch offers good deals, but you can't go wrong for an evening out either.

If you want good bbq and don't mind making a 15 minute drive, this is one of the best local places. Check their site for hours of operation as they are closed several days out of the week.

The Mark C. Smith Concert Hall is a 2,000 seat intimate setting for a concert or comedy. From Dwight Yoakam to Martina McBride, from Jerry Seinfeld to Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, this venue has never let me down.

Okay, I lied. This is the other great thing about Decatur. Another small venue without a bad seat in the house, this is a great concert setting or catch a movie during Halloween or Christmas.
