    Loved having our cheerful, smart travel companion along for the ride! We’re just sad to be all alone tomorrow for the Mississippi portion of the Natchez! Why didn’t you do that stretch?!?!

    There isn’t a lot of places to stop and see in the Tennessee stretch of the parkway. The unspoiled land is a nice change of scenery away from Nashville.

    It only covers the Tennessee portion of the Trace. You can only hear the narrative when you're approaching a trigger point so if you skip portions of the Trace you can't hear about what you missed. The narration is informative and entertaining.

    What to expect

    1

    Frank Lloyd Wright - Rosenbaum House Museum

    <nil>

    I'm going to guess that we've heard of Frank Lloyd Wright who is recognized as being one of the country’s greatest architects Note: The tour is over 134 miles long, with more than 95+ audio stories, and takes about 2-3 hours to complete. Buy once, use for one year! Ideal for extended visits and return trips over the next 12 months.

    Duration 5 minutes
    2

    Florence

    While many people tend to associate complex, ancient societies with the Egyptian pyramids and Mexico's Mayan temples, there were thriving cultures from that era right here, too.

    Duration 5 minutes
    3

    Muscle Shoals

    People in Muscle Shoals like to say that music is in the water there. The area was the birthplace of W. C. Handy, known as “The Father of the Blues.” His home is one of the area’s attractions. Sun Studio and Sun Records owner Sam Phillips, also known as “The Father of Rock and Roll,” was born in Florence, just across the river.

    Duration 5 minutes
    4

    Rock Springs Nature Trail

    <nil>

    There's a gem of a spring up ahead and it's well worth seeing. It's along the Rock Spring Nature Trail. We can do a short half-mile loop walking trail to a bubbling spring.

    Duration 5 minutes
    5

    Wilson's Headquarters & Camp Historical Marker

    To see their camping site, which by all admissions doesn't comprise much more than a small sign at the historical marker, turn left off the parkway at county road 14 after this small bridge. Otherwise, let's continue driving.

    Duration 5 minutes
    6

    Wichahpi Commemorative Stone Wall

    The late Tom Hendrix spent more than 30 years building what has become the largest unmortared wall in the country. The mile-long wall is a monument to Hendrix’s great-great grandmother, Te-lah-nay, and her journey on the Trail of Tears.

    Duration 5 minutes
    7

    Florence Indian Mound and Museum

    The Florence Mound and hundreds of others across the Southeast were part of cultural centers where people lived, traded across vast networks and buried their dead. The Florence Mound measures 145 feet by 95 feet near its top.

    Duration 5 minutes
    8

    Laurel Hill Lake

    I think this is the first time I'm mentioning fishing on the Trace. Is that our kind of thing? Did you pack rods and reels? If so, we can side trip three miles east to Laurel Hill Lake. This state-managed lake is one of several in Tennessee specifically designed for anglers.

    Duration 10 minutes
    9

    Meriwether Lewis Campground- Natchez Trace

    The Meriwether Lewis Campground, one of just three campgrounds on the Parkway itself—the other two are Rocky Springs and Jeff Busby —and the only one in Tennessee. The good news is, there are no fees to camp here.

    Duration 5 minutes
    10

    Swan View Overlook

    The first parking area we'll see will be on our right and it's for Fall Hollow - a small waterfall. We barely have to take 10 steps from our car to see it. Jackson Falls coming up later is more impressive, but Fall Hollow is still worth a quick stop.

    Duration 10 minutes
    11

    Devils Backbone Rd

    Technically, Devil’s Backbone State Natural Area is a park adjacent to the Trace, not actually on it. But, hey that's just a detail. What's important is that it's a good place to take a pretty, moderate-effort hike through the woods without a lot of other people around. It's especially interesting for the diversity of plant life.

    Duration 10 minutes
    12

    Jackson Falls

    Jackson Falls

    I want to tell you about Jackson Falls now so we have some time to think about if we want to make the stop to see it. Before we get to it, we will pass She Boss Place, have an option to stop and see a tobacco farm and do an Old Trace Walk. Following that are beautiful views from Bakers Bluff.

    Duration 10 minutes
    13

    Water Valley Overlook

    From here we get a roughly 180 degree view across the Water Valley. Its a example of pastoral Tennessee as we look across rolling hills of farms and ponds. The view is normally well maintained here, rarely obscured by brush or other growth. Interestingly, its a popular dark location for stargazing or there is some astronomical event taking place - like a meteor shower.

    Duration 10 minutes
    14

    Andrew Jackson's Hermitage

    Andrew Jackson's Hermitage

    I’ve mentioned President Andrew Jackson a few times. Jackson is one of the country’s most polarizing historical figures, at least in the South.

    Duration 15 minutes
    Admission Admission Not Included
    15

    Garrison Creek Trailhead

    In the early 19th century the forest here gave way to an army post, hence the name, a place where the U.S. military stationed troops to guard against Native Americans who were defending their ancestral land.

    Duration 20 minutes
    16

    Leipers Fork

    If you haven’t spent a lot of time in Nashville, you probably think it's home to a lot of country music musicians. But there are some really big celebrities that choose to live in a bucolic, tiny town, called Leiper's fork.

    Duration 10 minutes
    17

    The Music of Nashville

    The Music of Nashville

    Nashville is known as Music City and with very good reason. With more than 180 music venues, Nashville offers us the opportunity to see live music every night of our stay, including at the small but iconic Bluebird Cafe.

    Duration 10 minutes
    18

    The Loveless Cafe

    <nil>

    If all this sightseeing has made us hungry, we've got something of a Nashville culinary icon ahead. Just east of where the Trace ends and meets highway 100 sits the legendary Loveless Cafe. It's been a mainstay for Trace travelers for more than 70 years- ever since Anne and Lon Loveless opened their restaurant in 1951.

    Duration 20 minutes

    The experience can be subject to change due to bad weather or unforseen circumstances. We always endeavour to give you the best possible experience.
