Anyone ever drove from Louisiana to Tennessee? Have an old school Camaro that I want to take on a road trip and trying to figure out where. Thinking about Pigeon Forge.

What do you all think? Any recommendations on where to stop along the way? Or the best route?

Are you looking for easy or scenic?

“Tennessee” wouldn’t fit in the title?

LOL

Op, lots of us have driven up that way. It’s an easy drive.
Heard some of the old timers talking a while back about there being a great car show in that area once or twice a year

Tail of the Dragon at Deals Gap with 318 curves in 11 miles: America’s number one motorcycle and sports car road.
Designated US 129, the road is bordered by the Great Smoky Mountains and the Cherokee National Forest with no intersecting roads or driveways to hamper your travel. It is considered “the destination” for thousands of motorcycle and sports car fans throughout the spring, summer, and fall. Can you brave it? It’s best to be cautious as the turns are tight, but the Tail of the Dragon is guaranteed to be the ride of your life.

Drive up I-55 is boring and feels much longer than it is. The Road is usually empty except for local cops running speed traps.

I-59 to Chattanooga is far more scenic, but also involves dealing with the PITA that is Birmingham traffic.

I love driving through Appalachia, but getting there from Louisiana feels like it takes forever.

I-59 any day. Not much traffic set the cruise and roll

Not the most direct route but the Natchez Trace Parkway in MS, AL, & TN is probably the most scenic drive. Very little traffic, lots of historic spots, scenic overlooks, sights of interest, and rest areas along the way.

Natchez Trace
