Description:

If you enjoy the beauty of nature, then THIS IS FOR YOU! We are excited to sponsor the 2nd Chemin-a-Haut 4 Mile Trail Run and 1 Mile Walk. We are expecting a large group, so you will be in good company and have a ton of fun. The Chemin-a-Haut 4 Mile Trail Run and 1 Mile Walk is designed with three main purposes in mind. First, to provide a great race for everyone that enjoys trail running or walking along natural trails under towering cypress, hickory, and oak forests, and along scenic lakeshore and bayou. Second, to enjoy the unspoiled beauty that one of the oldest and most natural state parks in Louisiana has to offer as you enjoy the comradery of friends. You will pass by thousands of years old cypress trees, and run along the “high road,” the same route used by Native Americans centuries ago in their seasonal migration. Finally, the proceeds from this trail run and walk are re-invested in projects to benefit and raise awareness of the park
