Springtime is the perfect time to lace up those sneakers and set off on an outdoor adventure. Louisiana has countless hiking trails that are just waiting for you to explore, but there’s one, in particular, that’s a picture-perfect springtime hike. Located in the Chicot State Park, the Chicot Loop Trail might just be the most beautiful waterfront trail in Louisiana, and you’re going to love it.
Located in Ville Platte, Louisiana, Chicot State Park features 6,400 acres of natural beauty that’s perfect for a springtime adventure.
With endless rolling hills, playgrounds, spray pads, and fishing opportunities to keep you occupied, you could easily spend all day at this picture perfect state park, and that’s before you even get to the massive 2,000-acre man-made lake.
You might even love it so much you’ll want to stay for a few days. The waterfront cabins are ideal for a quick weekend getaway, but you can always bring your RV or pitch a tent and sleep under the stars.
