Autumn in Nashville, Tennessee is perhaps one of the best seasons in the state. It’s where you come to fall in love with crisp weather and stunning fall foliage, it’s where you visit for fun in the still-fairly-temperate summer sun. Add wine? And suddenly the entire experience gets a whole lot better. This winery and fall foliage road trip can easily be done in a day or a weekend, with your best friends or your signifiant other or even just yourself, with a book in tow. You may want to choose just one if you’re going solo, though. No drinking and driving, Tennessee!
Check it out, fall in love, and let us know about all your autumnal adventures in the comments below. This is one road trip for the books!
We'll start in downtown Nashville, so you can snag a pumpkin spice latte from one of the many coffee shops and wander the shops and streets of the city. Nashville is studded with trees, which means you'll see all sorts of beautiful colors as you begin your day in the city.
The trek to City Winery isn't far, it's actually right in the heart of Nashville's downtown! A popular spot, you can come for a meal or a show, since this stunning venue is a one-stop-shop. It's especially attractive for its easy location, and offers some high end musical guests that pair well with a glass of wine.
Located about twenty minutes outside of the heart of Nashville, Radnor Lake boasts some of the most beautiful foliage in the state. Whether you're looking to indulge in a stunning hike around the water or perhaps a quiet moment indulging in the view, it's a well-visited spot for a reason.
Once you're done at Radnor, make your way to the Belle Meade Winery by way of the historic Belle Meade Plantation. The plantation itself is made up of a historic mansion that's now a museum, with a visitor's center and winery on the property. This is where you'll get a solid infusion of history and wine in a single visit.
Percy Warner Park isn't far away, and it's best frequented for beautiful views and great hiking. As one of the most popular public parks in the city, it's well-worth an autumnal visit.
Next stop, Arrington! This beautiful property is one of the most beautiful wineries in Middle Tennessee. Friendly to folks of all ages, we'd recommend bringing a picnic lunch to indulge in while you sip their wine on their stunning property. The state will unfurl with autumn colors in front of you, and it's a sight like none other.
Don't miss out on all the beauty that a Nashville autumn has to offer. There's opportunity all over the city, and there's no wrong way. Happy autumnal adventuring, Tennessee!
It looks like a whole lot of autumnal fun, don’t you think? If you’re looking to experience a bit more Tennessee majesty, check out the tallest waterfall in the state. It’s incredible!
