The city of Nashville is both a popular vacation spot and a destination place to live, but to locals akin to the daily traffic, long waits at restaurants, and late nights spent listening to live music in dive bars, it can get to be a bit of a slog. Instead of spending the weekend once again amidst city lights, Nashville, why don’t you get out of town instead? Fall Creek Falls State Park is one of the most popular state parks in Tennessee for a reason, and it’s only two hours from the city.

Your route will take you down I-24 through Murfreesboro and out into McMinnville, finally to Spencer, Tennessee. You’ll have the chance to take in some of the most beautiful scenery in Tennessee while also getting to know small cities just outside of Nashville. At just over 100 miles away, Fall Creek Falls is the perfect get-out-of-town destination.
