How to get out Nashville
Fall Creek Falls, . A spectacular waterfall located on the rim of the Cumberland Plateau, several hours outside of Nashville.
Jack Daniel's Distillery, . Located an 1.5 hours away in Lynchburg, the distillery still makes Tennessee Sour Mash Whisky the way Mr. Daniel did. Tours are available, but don't expect a tasting; the distillery is in a dry county! (The lemonade given out out the tour's end, however, is held in high esteem.)
George A. Dickel, . Located about an hour from Nashville in Tullahoma, this distillery has been making whiskey since 1870 from a "secret mash of corn, barley and rye" that is barrel-aged for about 12 years!
Natchez Trace Parkway, . The 444-mile long parkway follows the same path used by travelers from Nashville to Natchez, Mississippi during the early 19th Century. It begins in the southwest part of Nashville along Highway 100 about 10 miles outside of the city. 8 miles south from the parkway entrance in Williamson County is the nation's first segmentally constructed concrete arch bridge. The parkway provides spectacular views of the rolling hills in Tennessee.
Franklin, Tennessee. Fifteen miles south of Nashville. A Historic civil-war town.
Great Smoky Mountains National Park is a United States National Park, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and an International Biosphere Reserve that straddles the border between Tennessee and North Carolina. The park is about a 3 1/3 hours drive east of Nashville, so it would be more than you could do in a day, but certainly worth a weekend trip!
