Few things on the Natchez Trace Parkway feel as old as a sunken forest trail, where generations of travelers wore the ground down below the surrounding woods. This view shows that worn corridor in late autumn, with bare trees overhead and leaves piled along the path. The Trace itself followed a route used for centuries by Native peoples and later by settlers, drovers and mail riders moving between the Mississippi River and Nashville. The parkway that now preserves much of that corridor was developed in the twentieth century, and its scenic drives aim to keep the old road's character visible. Notice how the sunken banks frame the path, which is the same kind of landform that made the trail easy to follow long before it was paved.
