Alabama Small Town Travel: Leeds and Montevallo offer ways to go fast or slow down

By: Amber Sutton

Alabama is filled with small towns that often get overlooked for the state’s bigger cities, and two such towns are those of Montevallo and Leeds. From a morning spent strolling through Montevallo’s whimsical Orr Park or exploring the American Village to an afternoon spent window-shopping along Leeds’ charming Main Street or visiting the Barber Motorsports Park and Museum, these towns might be small, but there’s still plenty to see and do.

So no matter what your interests are – whether it’s getting outside, seeing something new, getting in a little relaxation or all the above and then some, here’s a look at some of the ways you could spend a day exploring the towns of Montevallo and Leeds.

To kick things off, a trip to Leeds must involve a visit to the Barber Motorsports Park and Museum, where you view one of the largest collections of motorcycles in the world and the largest collection of vintage Lotus racecars on display at the 230,000-square-foot Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum, as well as catch a race at the track, which takes place throughout the year.
