Trail Overview
This is a scenic desert drive between County Road 19 and Fort La Clede. The remains of the La Clede Stage Station are about a mile before the Fort. The Station and Fort were located along the Overland Trail; a stagecoach route operated in the mid-1800s. Ruins include a few remaining stone walls and rubble. Concrete posts marked with "Overland Stage" are periodically located near the vehicle trail marking the path of the historic Overland Trail route.
