Small trailhead into Acadiana Park's wetland and bayou habitats—cypress stands, boardwalks, marsh grasses and water reflections offer intimate landscape and wildlife shots. No entrance fee; parking at 1205 E Alexander St. Best at golden hour or after rain for mirror reflections; spring and fall bring migratory birds. Trails are mostly flat but can be muddy—bring insect repellent and waterproof shoes.
