Rugged hills, bluffs, and “steep” ravines pepper the landscape. Quite the change of scenery from the swampy marsh trails in much of the state.

In addition to hiking, Tunica Hills is a popular attraction for all types of wildlife enthusiasts including hunters, trappers, and bird watchers. Deer, turkey, fox, and even bobcats are just a few of the animals that call Tunica Hills home. You might even catch a glimpse of the elusive Louisiana Black Bear!

For the epic explorers, bring your tent and spent a night or two sleeping under the stars. There’s primitive camping available in the camping area off Parker Road on the South Tract.
