The Buffalo Trace trail was created by American bison when thousands of the huge beasts migrated along the route. The trace began on the east at the falls of the Ohio River where the buffalo converged to cross the river at its shallowest point. It stretched northwest up to Vincennes and the Wabash were the buffalo dispersed to graze on the open prairies of Illinois.
