Hiking the Port Hudson trails




The last 2 weekends husband and I took some of the grandchildren hiking at Port Hudson Historic State Site, a civil war battleground out around Zachary and St. Francisville. There are hills (hard to find in this area of the country) and bridges and streams to explore. Although you're not supposed to get off the trail, we detoured a few times to walk over some fallen trees and down to a creek bed to let the dog swim. There are not many hikers, though this is our season in Louisiana for hiking. Tunica Hills  is another trail I really want to hike, but not during deer hunting season. At least that's what hubby says. There is supposed to be a waterfall along that trail. Maybe sometime before it gets too hot and muggy. Happy Hiking to everyone.
