Driving Elkhart County’s 90-mile Heritage Trail takes you on a winding loop along rural highways, down quiet country lanes, through friendly cities and along small town main streets. The scenic route will lead you to many of the region’s most popular restaurants, shops, inns and attractions. Our interactive Heritage Trail map (below) will guide you and your mouse as you “drive” the trail.
