Learn all about the history of the original settlements while enjoying a drive through the countryside.

Because the Salzburgers emphasize the idea of community and family, the culture of Effingham County can be seen wherever you go - especially along the famed Effingham-Ebenezer Scenic Byway.

Drive through the vast expanse of sprawling grasslands, scenic vistas along the river, and oak-lined roads as you wind your way.

From there, travelers will enter into Ebenezer, past Ebenezer Creek, and then the ghost town of Stillwell.
