Journey along the Natchez Trace Parkway, which winds 444 miles from the southern Appalachian foothills of Tennessee through the emerald forests of Alabama to the bayous and swamps of Mississippi. It roughly follows the "Old Natchez Trace," a historic travel corridor used by American Indians, "Kaintucks," European settlers, slave traders, soldiers, and future presidents. Today, the Natchez Trace Parkway is one of the most visited of all national parks.
