You Can Hear Yourself Think On The Remote Caroline Dormon Trail In Louisiana

The Caroline Dormon Trail offers a peaceful 10-mile hike through dense forest with scenic views and camping options.

Few things will clear your mind faster than a walk, and we've got just the trail for you. When you need a little time to yourself to let yourself ponder, this particular trail will give you all the peace and quiet you could hope for. You'll be surrounded by towering pine trees, your walk will be scored by a symphony of songbirds, and the views along the way will inspire you. Sounds perfect, right?

When you want to get away from it all, the Caroline Dormon Trail is just what you're looking for.

The trail is roughly 10 miles long from trailhead to trailhead, with parking and camping options at both ends.

It's primitive camping, so bring a tent if you're interested in sleeping under the stars!

The trail will lead you through the dense forest with nothing but your thoughts to guide you.

The trail is dog-friendly, so you can bring your furry friend along for an adventure, too!

The trail is pretty easy, but you'll encounter some rocky terrain along the way.

You'll even have some beautiful views of the Kisatchie Bayou along the route.

There are plenty of scenic spots to sit for a spell and just take in the sights and sounds.

If you hike the full 10 miles, you're looking at a 3 to 4-hour adventure.

You can park your car at one trailhead, hike the trail and then camp at the other trailhead for the night before hiking the trail back to your car.

Once you've hiked the Caroline Dormon Trail, consider hiking one of the hundreds of beautiful trails within the Kisatchie National Forest.
