The John Smith Chesapeake is the first National Historic Trail to follow a route on water. The historic routes cover approximately 3000 miles of the Bay and its tributaries, and they may be accessed from hundreds of points throughout Virginia, Maryland and Delaware.
More detailed information, including maps and trail guidebooks, is available at many locations and water trails around the Chesapeake Bay. Visit www.baygateways.net for further information on many of the existing water trails that follow portions of John Smith's historic journey.

The American Indian people of the Chesapeake region often relied on translators to work with the many languages and dialects that people spoke. Such translators were often instrumental in helping the Smith party communicate with people they met along their journeys.
