Riding the ENTIRE Natchez Trace Parkway in Two Days! Solo Motorcycle Road Trip

The Natchez Trace Parkway, one of the best motorcycle roads in the Southern USA, is a 444-mile scenic byway that takes you through Mississippi, Alabama, and Tennessee. This historic route follows a 10,000-year-old footpath used by Native Americans, early explorers, and settlers, offering a journey through time and nature. It’s one of the best motorcycle rides in the Southern United States, due to its historical stops, scenery, minimal traffic and curvy roads, and of course, the southern cuisine you can find in the nearby towns. I took a 2-day solo motorcycle road trip to ride the entire Natchez Trace Parkway, plus check out a few of the towns along the route.

Here's a rundown of everything we'll be checking out:
