Where Are The Natchez Trace Parkway Milemarkers Located?

| Comments (0)

In case you were wondering...


Here is yet another piece of useless trivia about the Natchez Trace Parkway:

All milemarkers are located on the east side of the road.

That means, when you're driving north (from Mississippi, through Alabama, and into Tennessee), the milemarkers will be on the righthand side of the road. And when you're driving south (from Nashville to Biloxi), the milemarkers will be on the lefthand side of the road.

There. So now you know.

For what it's worth, and just to make this article a little bit longer...
Deer on the Natchez Trace Parkway are usually found grazing at the tree line on the west side of the road.
