Louisiana Highway 13 (LA 13) is a state highway located in southern Louisiana. It runs 64.02 miles (103.03 km) in a north–south direction from LA 14 west of Kaplan to US 167 in Turkey Creek.
The route connects several small population centers in the Acadiana region of the state west of the busier US 167 corridor. These include Crowley, the parish seat of Acadia Parish, as well of the city of Eunice, and the town of Mamou. US 167 serves the parish seats of the three remaining parishes through which LA 13 passes. LA 13 also intersects three of Louisiana's major east–west cross-state highways: US 90 and I-10 in Crowley, and US 190 in Eunice.
Much of the route of LA 13 is included in the state's system of tourist routes known as the Louisiana Scenic Byways. The portion from Kaplan to US 190 in Eunice, as well as the portion from LA 104 in Mamou to LA 106 north of Pine Prairie are both part of the Zydeco Cajun Prairie Scenic Byway.
