Creole Nature Trail
Hackberry, LA

Seafood provides the basis for a major industry for this part of Louisiana's Outback, which is evident in Hackberry, with shrimp and crab houses lining the byway.

The importance of the waterways to this area is obvious as travelers pass through town. Signs advertising seafood, crab bait, cast nets, hunting and fishing supplies and local guide services are common sights. Because of the abundance of natural resources, many commercial crabbers, shrimpers, trappers and fishermen make Hackberry their home.
