Start the new year on the right foot by exploring the natural beauty of Mississippi State Parks!
Whether you're revisiting a favorite spot or discovering a new trail, we have paths suited for all skill levels and abilities. From gentle strolls to more adventurous hikes, there's something for everyone.
You can participate in First Day Hikes at any of our state parks, but select parks will offer guided hikes, refreshments, and fun activities to make your experience even more special. No matter where you hike, you'll be surrounded by breathtaking landscapes, wildlife, and the peace that only nature can bring.
Share the Fun!
