Lincoln Parish Park
Overview
Rated as one of the best mountain bike trails in America, Lincoln Parish Park is a treasure for mountain bike lovers and noncyclist too. The 10-mile trail offers a challenging and exciting course for not only the advanced rider but beginners as well.
Park amenities include covered pavilions, picnic tables, and benches throughout the park. A 1.25-mile walking path winds around the beautiful lake. Guests can fish from piers or from non-motorized boats. Kayaks and canoes are welcome.
The park also offers a playground for children. Legacy Park, located inside the park grounds, is a boundless park allowing children of all abilities a chance for fun and play. The park’s sandy beach and swimming area are open Memorial Day to Labor Day each with a lifeguard on duty.
Day admission rates are $3 per person. Campgrounds feature RV spots with full hookups including water, sewage, and electricity at each site ($35 per night) and primitive camping spots with access to electricity and campfires permitted ($25 per night). The beach at Lincoln Parish Park opens every day from 10am-6pm, beginning Memorial Day through Labor Day.
