Byway regional map
The Cumberland Historic Byway is a 200-mile connector that dips, bends, and curves along a path that moves mainly east to west except for a few places where steep and rugged terrain dictates otherwise. Covering eight counties and some 17 different communities, this corridor is special because of the richness of its natural, cultural, and historic resources.
