St. Bernard State Park, Louisiana state park in St. Bernard Parish, United States.
St. Bernard State Park is a large natural area featuring lagoons, forests, and wetlands situated along the Mississippi River. The grounds contain diverse wildlife habitats and offer visitors multiple landscape types to explore.
The land was donated in 1971 by a local businessman and former state senator along with his wife to create this park. Following severe hurricane damage, the park reopened in 2006 with renovated facilities.
The park serves as a stopping point along a major birding trail that helps visitors connect with Louisiana's wetland ecosystems. Walking through the grounds, you can observe the natural habitats that define this part of the coast.
The park has campsites with water and electrical hookups along with trails and recreational areas for day visits and overnight stays. Access points are spread throughout the grounds, making it easy to find parking and facilities that suit your needs.
The park includes a water playground that was added when it reopened after hurricane damage. This feature makes it particularly welcoming for families looking to cool off during hot months.
