LeFleur's Bluff State Park

LeFleur's Bluff State Park encompasses 305 acres of forests, lakes, and trails along the Pearl River within the city limits of Jackson, Mississippi.

Louis LeFleur, a French Canadian trader, established a trading post on these Pearl River banks during the late 18th century, leading to Jackson's foundation.

The Mississippi Museum of Natural Science within the park maintains collections of over one million specimens, including fish, reptiles, birds, and regional fossils.

The park charges an entrance fee of 4 dollars per vehicle and provides 28 campsites with utility hookups, alongside primitive camping areas and bathhouses.

The park features specialized outdoor nature exhibits that support native plant species and an accessible playground between the pavilions at Mayes Lake.
