The Scioto Trail ran north–south along the Scioto, from the Ohio River at Portsmouth past the Shawnee towns near Chillicothe toward the Sandusky. It linked the Shawnee to the Wyandot and the Great Lakes.

US-23 follows much of the route. Which bank did the trail keep near Chillicothe, and what source tells you?
