Ep. 386: Natchez Trace - Part 2 Alabama to Tupelo | RV travel camping hiking

In Part 2 of our Grand Adventure on the Natchez Trace Parkway, we're traveling the middle section of this 444 mile-long unit of the National Park Service, following the route of the historic Natchez Trace through northwestern Alabama and northern Mississippi as far as Elvis Presley's birthplace in Tupelo. Along the way, we'll experience the natural and man-made wonders of this remarkable forest trail, while exploring charming Tupelo and some Civil War history as well.

ABOUT US

Welcome to Grand Adventure, a YouTube channel that focuses on RV-centric outdoor activities including not only of course camping, but also mountain biking, hiking, kayaking, skiing and more, always filmed in stunning 4K.

We're based in Salt Lake City, Utah during the winter months, and invite you to come along as we travel all around North America. My wife Patricia and I, and dog Zoe are avid boondockers, so while you'll occasionally find us in RV parks or even dry campgrounds, we're usually camped in some of the most remote and beautiful spots that you could ever pull a travel trailer into. We've now transitioned from "long-timing" for six months a year, to living and traveling in our RV full-time.

We'll provide beautiful travel videos, as well as some tips and insight on trip planning, and equipping and maintaining your RV to make your next adventure a grand one indeed! So, subscribe to make sure that you catch every episode, and remember...life is nothing but a Grand Adventure!
