Old Spanish Trail
Der historische Routenverlauf des Old Spanish Trail

Der Old Spanish Trail (span.: Viejo Camino Español) ist eine historische Handelsroute im Westen der heutigen USA.

Sie verbindet Santa Fé im nördlichen New Mexico über Utah und Nevada mit Los Angeles in Kalifornien. Die Strecke ist etwa 2.000 Kilometer lang und führt unter anderem durch Gebirge, Wüsten und tiefe Canyons. Nachdem die Route erstmals 1776 von europäischen Siedlern erkundet wurde, nahm ihre Nutzung spätestens ab der Mitte der 1850er Jahre stark zu.

Die Strecke wurde 2006 als National Historic Trail ausgewiesen und wird gemeinsam vom National Park Service und dem Bureau of Land Management betreut.
