Overview

Mississippi, blessed with waterfalls, barrier islands, intact wilderness areas, and scenic backwoods trails, comprises a varied terrain of shoreline, woods, cypress swamps, lakes and streams, an arboretum, and a petrified forest. Hikers and backpackers will find the state a naturalist's haven, a favorite place for trekking and exploring.


This indispensable manual is the one to carry as you adventure over Mississippi's larger public lands and other rustic tracts that are open to the hiker. It describes national forests, national parks, wildlife refuges, and reservoirs, as well as state parks and many smaller, less-known sites with strong appeal for those who wish to explore on foot or bicycle. And, for buffs who savor local history as they backpack, this trail guide offers information about well known mavericks and outlaws, the legacy of Native Americans, and the heritage of the Civil War.
