See The Very Best Of Cajun Country In One Day On This Epic Road Trip

Picture this: you've got the windows rolled down, your favorite tunes playing in the car, and nothing but beautiful views through your windshield. Scenic road trips are a great way to get out and explore this awesome state of ours, and there's one scenic byway that'll show you the very best of Cajun Country, and that's the Creole Nature Trail.

Clocking in at an impressive 180 miles, the Creole Nature Trail is Louisiana’s only All-American Road.

It's one of the most underrated attractions in Louisiana.

Begin your journey at the Creole Nature Trail Adventure Point.

Of course, you can start wherever you’d like, depending on where you’re driving from, but this free attraction is perfect to start your adventure. Hands-on displays and exhibits will give you a better insight into what you’re in store for during your road trip.

Once you’ve learned all there is to know, it’s time to hit the open road.

Be sure to gas up the car and pack some snacks, you’re going to need them!

Winding through Louisiana’s Outback, you’ll have a front-row seat to Louisiana’s prairies, marshes, and more.

You’ll also pass through some charming towns that you may want to stop off in for lunch. Nothing beats a home-cooked Cajun meal, and you’re in the heart of Cajun Country, so treat yourself.

As you make your way south, the bayous fade into beaches.

Holly Beach is a great spot for seashell hunting. Find yourself a little memento to remember your trip! You can also camp right on the beach if you'd like to spend a night sleeping under the stars listening to the sounds of the waves crashing onto the shore.

There are plenty of places to stop and stretch your legs.

As you drive through the Sabine National Wildlife Refuge, be sure to take a stroll down the Blue Goose Trail where you’ll come to a lovely scenic overlook of the marsh.

The trail is beautiful year-round, but you'll find yourself wanting to come back every season.

Between the hundreds of migratory birds and endless greenery, you'll have a different view every time you take this epic road trip.
