You may have thought Tolkien’s “Middle Earth” existed only in the world of fantasy but that’s simply not the case. There’s a natural wonderland right here in Mississippi that could easily pass for something thought up by Tolkien himself, and it’s called the Clark Creek Nature Area.

Tucked away in the small town of Woodville, you'll find one of Mississippi's most amazing outdoor treasures, the Clark Creek Nature Area.
