Day 1

Pinewood
Let's start your 'city' nature day right! One of the best brunch spots in Nashville, Pinewood is always a vibe. Highly recommend the chicken biscuit.

Crema Coffee Roasters
Just across the street from Pinewood, Crema is known as one of the best coffees in Nashville. The caffeine in this coffee is strong! Be ready to feel like the energizer bunny for the rest of the day.

Wasioto Park
From Crema, I highly recommend walking over the Korean Veteran's Bridge (an unbelievable view over the river and downtown) to Cumberland Park. Probably a 15 minute walk, but you'll get the perfect skyline photo.
See More
Bicentennial Capitol Mall State Park
After Cumerland Park, either drive (or take a scooter) across downtown to the beautiful Bicentennial Park. This park has a stunning view of Capitol Hill, and is a great place to walk around. Check out the Farmer's Market and the Museum in the park as well for the full experience.

Arnold's Country Kitchen
You're in Tennessee. Let's start that soul food journey with many Nashvillian's favorite southern food spot- Arnold's! PLEASE try the roast beef. It's to die for.
See More
Centennial Park
By now, you're probably extremely full from your large southern breakfast and lunch. I'd recommend a casual afternoon, relaxing in Centennial, where they have a replica of the Parthenon in Greece. The lawn here is an unbelievable place to bring a blanket, a book, and relax. Once your food coma is over, toss the frisbee or walk around the lake here. And if you're down, definitely stay for sunset. The sunset over the Parthenon and the wide expansive lawn is very dreamlike. My personal favorite spot to relax in the city.
See More
Fifth + Broadway
Your energy should be back by now, so let's head back to downtown for a wonderful time at Fifth + Broadway. Great restaurants (and a wonderful winery on the top floor) and shopping options here. It's a great place to spend the evening experiencing one of Nashville's most hip places to be.

Day 2

Narrows of the Harpeth
Day 2- we're getting you out of the city a bit, so buckle up. And set those alarms! Narrows of the Harpeth is a STUNNING sunrise spot, if you're up for it. It's a solid 45min drive from the city, but a short 5 minute hike up, and you'll be on these amazing bluffs overlooking the stunning Tennessee fields at sunrise. This is peace and quiet at its finest.

The Loveless Cafe
You've been up for a while. Let's hit the best breakfast spot in all of Nashville. Unlimited free biscuits come with your meal, so come hungry.
See More
Natchez Trace Parkway Bridge
Only a short 10minute drive from Loveless, take a beautiful drive down Natchez Trace Parkway to the Natchez Trace Parkway bridge. A beautiful photo spot, and there's parking next to the bridge, so you're able to walk along it and get your perfect selfie.
See More
Cheekwood
The perfectly curated nature walk, Cheekwood is an unbelievably beautiful set of gardens. You could spend all day here wandering around looking at the nature, art displays, and flowers. It's a wonderful date spot too, if you're into that sort of thing.
See More
Barbara’s Home Cooking
Under the radar compared to many soul food spots in Nashville, Barbara's will knock your socks off. The poppyseed chicken is a must-try.
See More
Warner Parks
By now you've eaten quite a bit, so let's get those steps in! Percy Warner has some beautiful trails to walk through and is a nature lover's dream, located in the city. Spend your afternoon here, getting lost and taking photos.

Day 3

Portland Brew
12 South is one of the most popular streets in the city, but Portland Brew won't have the lines that Frothy Monkey will have. A small, quaint shop- this was always a locals favorite before 12 south blew up into the hipster destination it is today.
See More
Radnor Lake
Radnor is maybe the most beautiful walk in Nashville. Take a walk around the lake, and don't forget to look for wildlife and bring your camera!
See More
Monell's
The soul food journey continues! But here in the south, we like our community. Monell's serves their food family style, meaning big 'all you can eat' plates, and sitting at a table full of strangers! Just ask your new best friend sitting next to you to pass the mashed potatoes, and don't forget to say please and thank you.
See More
Cornelia Fort Airpark at Shelby Bottoms
A former airport is now a surprisingly lesser known nature spot in Nashville. Feel incredibly tiny as the former airplane runway is now a walking/biking trail that is definitely made for something larger than humans. This vast park is a great photo op as well.

Hattie B's Hot Chicken - Nashville - Midtown
Alright we've held off for as long as we could. It's time to wrap up your 3 day journey with some Nashville Hot Chicken. Hattie B's is as good as it gets. Just be careful- hot means HOT. But try anything- it's all delicious
