Old Trace Drive, Milepost 375.8

This 2 point 5 mile road (one-way) follows the original Old Natchez Trace route. Several overlooks provide views of the countryside. RVs and buses are prohibited due to the narrow road and low hanging limbs.

While on the Old Trace Drive you will be driving on a section of the Old Natchez Trace and see for yourself this frontier road much as it appeared in the early 1800s.

En route, stop at the three scenic overlooks to enjoy the fine views. The modern parkway follows the general route of the Old Natchez Trace. Engineering standards and the necessity of preserving sections of the Old Natchez Trace have made it impractical to follow it exactly. 

This is a great place to view the fall colors from the comfort of your vehicle.
