This pictorial history of Natchez Trace illustrates the people, places, and events that have shaped the area's cultural and natural history. The Natchez Trace is one of the oldest trails in North America. In 1801, President Jefferson ordered the Army to build a road along the trail to provide a route for moving troops and delivering mail. Jefferson dispatched soldiers down the road in 1803 to protect the Louisiana Purchase, and Andrew Jackson and his troops followed it to battle the British in the War of 1812. As an 1800-era link between Nashville, Tennessee, and Natchez, Mississippi, the road served as a pathway for settling much of what we now know as the South. Twentieth-century writers such as Eudora Welty later embellished its lore of heroes, bandits, and spies, inspiring Southern leaders to revive the Natchez Trace.

Excerpt from Comprehensive Trail Plan: Natchez Trace National Scenic Trail, Alabama-Mississippi-Tennessee The historic Natchez Trail was a primitive trail stretching some 500 miles through the wilderness from Natchez, Mississippi, to Nashville, Tennessee. The story of the old Natchez Trace is the story of a region and of the people who developed this trail into a vital road through the Old Southwest frontier. Although generally thought of as one trail, the Natchez Trace was actually a number of closely parallel wilderness routes. When the first Europeans arrived in the area about 1700, they found the Natchez, Choctaw, and Chickasaw Indians already using these rough trails into the interior of the lower Mississippi Valley. As American settlement expanded toward the southwest, boatmen used the trace to walk back to their homes after disposing of their trade goods and boats in the Mississippi River towns of Natchez and New Orleans. Today, the Natchez Trace Parkway, which commemorates the old trace, roughly parallels the historic route between Natchez and Nashville. Slated for completion in the 19905, the 449-mile motor road includes a right-of - way that averages 825 feet in width, with bulges at irregular intervals to provide land for associated recreation, interpretive, and management developments. Visitor facilities include comfort stations, picnic areas, campgrounds, marked sections of the old Natchez Trace, and interpreted sites of prehistorical, historical, and natural interest.
