7 days in Nashville Itinerary

Known as the capital of country music, the thriving city of Nashville combines old-world southern charm with a progressive urban flair.

Your cultural itinerary includes sights like Loretta Lynn's Ranch and Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park. Take a break from the city and head to Burgess Falls State Park and Fort Donelson National Battlefield. Change things up with these side-trips from Nashville: Arrington Vineyards (in Arrington), Stones River National Battlefield (in Murfreesboro) and George Dickel Distillery (in Tullahoma). There's lots more to do: examine the collection at Lane Motor Museum, admire the majestic nature at Radnor Lake State Park, sample the fine beverages at Nelson's Green Brier Distillery, and get curious at Adventure Science Center.
