Natchez Trace Wine Trail

The 444-mile Natchez Trace Parkway commemorates an ancient trail that connected southern portions of the Mississippi River, through Alabama, to today's central Tennessee. The Tennessee cities along the historic Natchez Trace Parkway are Nashville, Franklin, Leiper's Fork and Brentwood. Visitors can experience this National Scenic Byway and All-American Road through driving, hiking, biking, horseback riding and camping. Along the Trail, enjoy Franklin and Leiper's Fork, historic communities just south of Nashville. Leiper's Fork combines an eclectic mix of country simplicity and sophisticated charm. An outdoor lawn-chair theatre along with antiques, artisan and unique gift shops plus delicious country cooking provide a fun time for travelers venturing off the Parkway. Franklin offers the grand beauty of Victorian and antebellum architecture, breathtaking, rolling Middle Tennessee countryside as a backdrop. Known for its award-winning Main Street and small town charm, Franklin showcases antique galleries and unique shops in its historic downtown district. Visitors can explore Civil War history throughout the county.
