Park Information:

Natchez Trace Parkway (NATR) Information: The Natchez Trace Parkway is a tribute to the ancient travel route called the Natchez Trace, which has a rich history as one of North America's oldest transportation paths. This modern Parkway spans a remarkable 444 miles, requiring over 10 hours to journey from one end to the other. It spans across three states, encompassing 25 counties and 20 communities, with a combined residential population of nearly two million people. Additionally, there are over 3,000 commercial and private landowners residing alongside the Parkway boundary.

The completion of the modern Parkway occurred in 2005, establishing it as one of the largest units within the national park system, covering a vast geographic range. The Parkway corridor extends over five degrees of latitude and boasts an impressive 52,000 acres of breathtaking scenic beauty. Within this expanse, visitors can immerse themselves in a diverse array of traditional southern landscapes, including forests, wetlands, prairies, rivers, pastures, and croplands. These natural wonders are accompanied by rich cultural and historic resources, creating an immersive experience for all who traverse its path.

Recognizing its immense value, the Natchez Trace Parkway was rightfully designated as a National Scenic Byway and All-American Road in 1996. This prestigious acknowledgment is a testament to the Parkway's significant historic, cultural, natural, and scenic qualities. In 2014 alone, the Parkway welcomed nearly 6 million visitors, solidifying its position as the eighth most visited National Park Service place in the entire nation.

The Headquarters of the Natchez Trace Parkway, a scenic and historic roadway that stretches from Mississippi to Tennessee, is located in Tupelo. The main visitor center provides a wealth of information for those interested in learning about the parkway's significance and exploring the surrounding attractions.
