The route follows along the Wabash River when possible and is on paved county roads periodically using a state highway to connect to the next county road. Roads signs vary from county to county and in some cases do not exist. Counties have been known to change road names / numbers for various purposes. For these reasons cyclists using the maps should have a good sense of direction and be observant of distances between intersections / towns or other distinguishing items on the maps. The route passes through cities and towns allowing for camping, hotels, food, etc.

Suggested overnights and distances:
Ft. Wayne to Peru - 60
Peru to Lafayette - 62
Lafayette to Rockville - 76
Rockville to Vincinnes - 96
Vincennes to Evansville - 70
