LIVINGSTON PARISH, La. (WVUE) - Itâs a state park that allows you to totally immerse yourself in nature.
A series of hiking trails and boardwalks at Tickfaw State Park takes you through the forest and swamp.
The Tickfaw River is the centerpiece of this 1200-acre state park.
It has long boardwalks that winds through the forested swamp and let you keep your feet dry. The boardwalk ends at a suspension bridge above the river.
âThereâs a lot of just what you expect Louisiana bayous with, you know, overhang, trees and foliage,â says Jessica Broom. âWe saw about five gators while we were out there.â
