Tennessee highways

Tennessee is situated right in the middle of the southeastern United States, with highways leading to eight bordering states in the region.

The capital of the "Volunteer State" is Nashville, the cradle of country music.

Tennessee is a mountainous state with both the Appalachian Mountains and the Great Smoky Mountains luring motorists along winding, scenic routes to beautiful vistas of lush valleys below.

Among the principal two-lane highways in the state are U.S. 64, running along the southern edge of the state, passing through Chattanooga on its way to Memphis; U.S. 70 from Memphis to Knoxville and beyond; U.S. 45 through western Tennessee; and U.S. 41, from north-central Tennessee to Chattanooga.

Additionally, the Natchez Trace Parkway and the Cherohala Skyway are two scenic routes in Tennessee.
