Reviewed by Kerri on 7/2/2007 I love this hike! My 9-year old dughter and I hike here alot. We always see something exciting to help make a new memory of our hike! We have found snakes (different kinds!,) a gator, a newt, turtles, etc. Always a fun and educational hike!!! 
Reviewed by Tim on 9/16/2005 This is a nice stopping place on the Natchez Trace. Just went to check it out after hurricane Katrina hit and there are several large trees down that block the trail. The main bride going over the small swamp from the Trace is still intact, but once you get over it, you pretty much have to call it quits unless you want to crawl over large tree trunks. This time of year, there is heavy vegetation covering the swamp and it is infested with aggressive mosquitos. Spring/Fall when it's cleaned up will be best time to visit...
