[edit] Route description

State Highway 21 becomes LA 6 after it crosses the Sabine River(Toledo Bend Reservior) from Texas into Louisiana. LA 6 then heads due east to Many where it intersects U.S. Route 171 and turns slightly northeastward. LA 6 intersects Louisiana Highway 120 in Robeline. LA 6 then intersects Louisiana Highway 117 near Hagewood, Interstate 49, and Louisiana Highway 1 before entering the Natchitoches city limits. LA 6 runs west and north of the city center. However, Louisiana Highway 6 Business runs through the downtown area before rejoining LA 6 just north of the city limits. LA 6 then crosses the Red River and ends at a junction with U.S. Route 71 in Clarence in Natchitoches Parish.
