We're tentatively planning to drive the Natchez Trace Parkway from Nashville to the Tennessee/Alabama state line the second week of June. Then heading across lower part of TN back to Ohio.
We hope someone has some suggestions as to where to camp - especially along the parkway, but also across lower TN. Using a 29' TT. Full hook-up not necessary but electric would be nice.
Also, do you have any other tips or hints as to this portion of the parkway? We like history, breweries and BBQ! One of us has some limitations as to walking.
Thanks! Appreciate your suggestions and recommendations, as always.
There are some campgrounds along the way but you will have to get off the parkway. We used RVPark Review and just online locators to find camping. spend one night a Daniel Boone State Park but not sure that is on your route.
We too will be driving Natchez Trace, about the same time. My question is, which way is the better way, if any? North to south or south to north? We will head that way from Atlanta, GA, so we could go either way.
Any thoughts?
I guess no one has driven the Natchez Trace. Oh well.

Drove the parkway about 3 years ago from North to South. I can't think of any difference in which direct to drive. We were camping at Cloudland Canyon near Chattanooga so we started from the North. If I was driving in the fall I would go from South to North to see how the fall colors were changing.
I tried to drive the trace a few weeks ago starting near Jackson and going north. It nearly beat us to death. It was probably the worst 20 miles I've ever towed, and I live in Louisiana with terrible roads. I hope your experience is better.
About 7 years ago we towed the blue ridge from the south end to sky line drive and came down in Shenandoah VA. It was great.
