Default Natchez Trace

Coming back North on Natchez Trace next week, looking for any input, suggestions, good places to stop/stay etc.&nbsp\\; Can't really find anything on the net relating to ridin'?
Thanks in advance for any and all input.

Pick up a park map at the first info centre. It will will give you gas, towns and places to get off for different things. Tupelo is a good place to stay and if you get up early you can go to Elvis' house before the crowds...it is nicely done. Did the Trace&nbsp\\;in June and it was a peaceful ride....the upper Trace is nicer than the bottom but just enjoy not being in traffic.

The 1st ed. HD Ride Atlas had the Natchez Trace ride as ne of the featured rides.&nbsp\\; The HD website may have it in the Rides in the Experience section.&nbsp\\; If you didnt stop at French Camp and get a smoked turkey &amp\\; bacon sandwich on their homemade bread, you may have missed the best thing on your trip.
