Route description[edit]
SR 157 begins at an intersection with SR 48, northwest of Menlo, in the community
of Cloudland, in Chattooga County. The road heads northeast into Walker County. It
curves to the northwest and heads to the north-northeast. The highway has a brief
foray into Dade County, before re-entering Walker County. Continuing on its north-
northeast trek, it intersects SR 136, southeast of Cloudland Canyon State Park. SR
157 continues to the north-northeast and curves to the north-northwest to re-enter
Dade County. The two routes run concurrent to the northeast. On the southwestern
edge of Lookout Mountain, they cut across the eastern edge of Covenant College.
They briefly run along the Dade�Walker county line, with SR 157 splitting off onto
McFarland Road, back into Walker County. It briefly heads south on Lula Lake Road,
before heading east on Red Riding Hood Trail. It curves to the northeast until it
meets its northern terminus, Tennessee State Route 58, at the Tennessee state line.
