Fall foliage season on the Natchez Trace Parkway is just around the corner. This year, folks can enter their fall foliage pictures of the parkway anytime from October 1 through November 23 in a Natchez Trace Fall Foliage Photo Contest. The parkway offers numerous opportunities for enjoying fall foliage - scenic overlooks, waterfalls, streams, river crossings, historic sites, sunken roads and sections of the 200+ year-old original Natchez Trace. Each contestant may enter up to three pictures.

We can't predict the exact fall foliage peak dates along each section of the 444 mile-long Natchez Trace but generally…Tennessee is at or near peak foliage colors from mid to late October, northwest Alabama and northeast Mississippi from late October to early November and central Mississippi early to mid November.

1st, 2nd and 3rd place prizes will be awarded to the top three pictures. The 1st place winner will receive a $300 B&B gift certificate from the reservation service, 2nd place winner a $200 B&B gift certificate and the 3rd place winner a $100 B&B gift certificate. Each of the winners will also receive one or more $25 dining certificates from restaurants located near the parkway. Winners will be determined by public voting on the website.
