This tour consists
of mostly rural county trunk roads and
township roads once you enter the Amish Community area featured in
gold on the map.
Most of these rights-of-way
are very old and follow the "lay
of the land". Many were constructed using routes in existence in
the 1700s & 1800s.
One can become
disoriented or temporarily lost in this
rural area. However, by following the suggested
route and the written directions provided, plus
printing a copy
of the map you
should find your way.
Businesses along the route can help
you with directions. Remember to drive cautiously
and defensively on this route...you will encounter
horse drawn vehicles, pedestrian traffic and you
will be in unfamiliar
territory.
Welcome to Columbia County
The yellow dots show
the Amish Tour. Entry may be made at any
point along the tour route. The tour and the
written tour directions follow a clockwise
direction. The starting point is at the
intersection of Highway 33 and County Trunk SS
near S&S Wildflowers. The entire tour
may be easily completed in a day of leisurely
driving and allows for multiple stops at
businesses of interest. Black Stars
represent Amish owned or Amish-Heritage
businesses...or businesses selling authentic Amish
goods.
