Creole Nature Trail  _{^{All-American Road}}

Hurricanes Laura and Delta destroyed many manmade structures along the Trail in the Fall of 2020. Natural constructs, and wildlife, are still present and thriving. Plan to bring supplies (food, drink, mosquito spray, etc.) and get fuel for your vehicle before you head out on the All-American Road. The most up-to-date information is available on this website.  

Alligators, over 400 bird species, marshlands teeming with life, 26 miles of natural Gulf of Mexico beaches, fishing, crabbing, Cajun culture, and more can be experienced as you travel the Creole Nature Trail All-American Road. One of only 57 designated scenic byways in the USA, and affectionately known as Louisiana’s Outback, the Creole Nature Trail is a journey into one of America’s “Last Great Wildernesses. Start planning your visit today and be sure to pack in what you need and pack out anything you brought with you (pack it in, pack it out) to preserve the flora, fauna, and amazing viewing for future generations.  

An excellent way to begin your adventure is at Creole Nature Trail Adventure Point. Fun (and free), this is a wonderful way to familiarize yourself with this scenic byway and Southwest Louisiana through hands-on displays and visitor information before hitting the trail.
