Embark on an adventure around the stunning Lake Chicot on this trail that winds through a variety of terrains. While the route is not too challenging during dry weather, it can pose a tougher challenge in wet conditions with potential mud and steep hills. However, the 6,400-acre park offers picturesque views year-round, and the crystal-clear lake is perfect for fishing.

Take advantage of the indoor camp facilities or opt for the South Landing's array of amenities such as cabins, picnic areas and boat rentals. The North Landing boasts campsites, fishing piers, and even a conservation lodge. With so much to explore, Lake Chicot is a must-visit destination for nature lovers.
