About This Trail

While primarily a paddling route, portions of this trail can be hiked along the banks where the canoe trail passes close to shore. The path offers views into subtropical bayou habitat and provides access to the waterway for those wanting to combine hiking with a paddle. Canoe rentals at the park make it easy to transition from foot to boat.
