<p>Pine forests and rolling pastures dominate the views along the
Monticello Crossroads Scenic Byway as it runs through Jasper
County. This 29-mile byway emphasizes the rural and historic
qualities of the area as it follows State Highways 11 and 83
heading north from the town of Monticello. Native Americans, as
well as evangelical Methodist Circuit Riders, once used these
routes as they crossed the state. Highway 83 was also part of the
Seven Island Stagecoach Road that ran from Augusta to New Orleans
and the Natchez Trace. Several individual structures as well as the
central business district of Monticello have been listed on the
National Register of Historic Places.</p>
