Louisiana Myths & Legends Byway Historical Markers

22 Kiosks guide the way along the Louisiana Myths & Legends Byway, creating a life-long travel memory. The Byway travels through flat land and along the riverbanks originally inhabited by the Atakapa and Coushatta Native Americans. The Byway then enters the area's abundant pine forests, which through the years were home to Civil War-era jayhawkers and to logging camps and lumber mills. In all, the Byway runs through three unique Louisiana parishes: Allen, Beauregard, Vernon.
