The Harriet Tubman Underground Railroad Byway shares the remarkable stories of freedom seekers who risked their lives to escape slavery in the 1800s. With more than 30 sites, the self-guided driving tour shows you the places where Tubman grew up, worshiped, labored, and led others to freedom. Plan your trip to Tubman's homeland in Dorchester and Caroline Counties on Maryland's Eastern Shore.

In 2013, the Harriet Tubman Centennial honors the life of this American hero with special programs and events.
