Valkyrie Axe Throwing, Chattanooga

Inside Valkyrie Axe Throwing's brick-laden, loft-style location on Chattanooga's Main Street, axes fly down five custom-built lanes. First-time throwers are welcomed as warmly as axe-perts tossing kick or Pacman shots at this venue that opened in 2019. Coaches are on hand to supervise the activity and offer technique tips that help throwers slice the bullseye every time.

• The throwers: Families, friends, coworkers, bachelorette parties, and all other groups are welcome to participate—as long as they're wearing close-toed shoes.
• The lanes: In addition to the lanes at the brick-and-mortar, Valkyrie offers a traveling service where portable lanes are set up at offsite events and parties.
• The libations: Valkyrie Axe Throwing is also a beer bar, so visitors may sip on frosty ales while they wait for their turn to take on the target.
