Description

The riding conditions on the Natchez Trace Parkway are excellent with cyclists enjoying an almost traffic-free road. The two-lane road is gently graded and is generally well paved. Although there are no shoulders, the road edges merge evenly onto a grass shoulder. No commercial traffic is permitted on the Parkway and a 50 mph speed limit is strictly enforced. At Jackson, where the parkway is not yet completed, you will be riding an urban route to connect to the next parkway segment.

The Parkway ends near Natchez, Mississippi, and from there southward the route passes through rural woodland areas of southern Mississippi and Louisiana, where narrow two-lane roads and timberland dominate the scenery. The route ends in Baton Rouge. This route intersects the Southern Tier Bicycle Route just north of the city.

ABOUT ADVENTURE CYCLING MAPS
Adventure Cycling maps are created by cyclists, for cyclists, and they are some of the best available for those in search of discovery and adventure in North America. The maps reflect the association's research as well as suggestions from thousands of cyclists who have explored the Adventure Cycling Route Network. Adventure Cycling develops the best cross-country, loop, coastal, and inland cycling routes available, with turn-by-turn directions, detailed navigational instructions for the tricky sections, and elevation profiles in the high country.

The maps are waterproof and designed to fit in a handlebar-bag window or jersey pocket. The maps provide information specifically for cyclists: the location of bike shops, sources for food and water, and listings of overnight accommodations including camping facilities, small hotels, and cyclists-only lodging.
