Canoe Trail Photos

Green Trail (Bayou-canal) – a wide barrow canal that was dug out to help make the levee. You might see alligator, otters and many types of birds. You will also see old rusty objects that were once part of old camps that used to line the levee side of the bayou-canal. One canoe campsite is on this trail – see Primitive Canoe Site # 1 Twin Ponds on the above menu under Primitive Sites.

Spring time

Blue Trail – the first trail that turns off the Green Trail. There is one Backpack campsite (# 5) and one Canoe campsite (#5 Pack or Paddle) on this trail. You may see White-tail deer on the land.

Red Trail (Ceabon Canal)- The trail that is furthest from the Interpretive Center where all canoeing starts. It is a narrow canal that has a pipeline on its bottom. Lined by tall ridges that are really spoil banks from the dredged bottom of the canal. Edged in Wax Myrtle bushes and various types of trees. Remember to watch out for wasp nests in the summer time in the bushes and low hanging branches. You might see turtles and alligators on logs, mink running along the ridges, and Osprey gliding over your heads. Two canoe campsites are on this trail – see Primitive Canoe Sites # 2 and #3 on the above menu under Primitive Sites.
