LAKE CHARLES, La. (April 12, 2016) - The Creole Nature Trail All-American Road, also known as Louisiana's Outback, has been brought to life with a free Smartphone application in six languages. The free app can be downloaded at the iTunes App Store or Android Market and has recently been updated to include Japanese and Mandarin Chinese.

One of only 43 All-American Roads in the United States, the Creole Nature Trail continues to garner attention both nationally and worldwide. The Creole Nature Trail personal tour app is available in English, French, German, Spanish, Mandarin Chinese and Japanese

The Creole Nature Trail All-American Road is a 180-mile driving tour through fertile marshlands, several wildlife refuges and along Louisiana's Gulf Coast. Here, outdoor adventure and abundant wildlife are waiting for visitors in their natural habitat. Using cutting-edge technology, the multi-media, self-paced tour guide system delivers content based on where users are located on the trail.

Whenever visitors enter the satellite radius of a point of interest along the Creole Nature Trail, the device will automatically provide a play button for a video about what the visitor is viewing. It's like having a personal tour guide.

ABOUT THE CREOLE NATURE TRAIL ALL-AMERICAN ROAD
The more than 180-mile Creole Nature Trail was one of the first National Scenic Byways designated by the U.S. Secretary of Transportation in the Gulf South, and in 2002 that designation was upgraded to the highest category, an All-American Road. Along this distinctive natural corridor through Louisiana's Outback — one of America's “Last Great Wildernesses” — you have the opportunity to experience world-famous wildlife habitats and estuaries. The Creole Nature Trail is a journey through a wild and rugged terrain unique to Louisiana, America and the world . . . Louisiana's Outback.  Find out more about the Creole Nature Trail at www.creolenaturetrail.org.
