The Natchez Trace Parkway bridge that spans across Highway 96 in Franklin, Tennessee is not only my favorite bridge on that parkway.
It quickly becomes the favorite of almost everyone who sees it… firsthand.
Of the 529 pictures I’ve taken of bridges along the Natchez Trace Parkway, 274 of those photos were taken of this particular bridge alone!
This one is my all-time favorite:
I like it because:
- It was shot from a unique angle.
- It’s a close-up.
- It shows the actual curvature of the bridge itself.
- It shows growth and life in all of the green surroundings.
- It’s got some interesting afternoon shadows.
We’ve lived in the Nashville area since 2001 — and all 3 of our houses have been situated relatively close to the Natchez Trace Parkway. To me, the ‘The Trace’ is a hidden gem of Nashville — a place to go when you want to get away from it all and be one with nature. I’ve hiked it, biked it, motorcycled it, walked it with my dogs, and driven my car on The Natchez Trace Parkway more times than I can count! This is where I share some of my favorite things to do along the Natchez Trace Parkway — which runs 444 miles from Nashville Tennessee to Natchez Mississippi and through parts of Alabama. When I’m not enjoying the beautiful outdoors along the Natchez Trace Parkway, you’ll find me at the corner of Good News & Fun Times as publisher of The Fun Times Guide (32 fun & helpful websites).
