Getting There

• Car

  If you are driving from any location in Northshore, first make your way to LA-21 N (also known as Highway 21 North). You can reach LA-21 N via local roads depending on where you are starting from. Once you are on LA-21 N, continue driving until you reach the junction with LA-16 W. Take the exit for LA-16 W towards Bogalusa. Continue on LA-16 W for approximately 15 miles. After passing through the town of Franklinton, look for the sign for Bogue Chitto State Park. Turn left onto State Park Blvd. The park entrance will be on your right. There is a small entrance fee, usually around $3 per person.

• Public Transportation

  If you are relying on public transportation, you will first need to get to the nearest bus station that connects to Franklinton. Check local bus schedules for routes that travel to Franklinton from your current location. Once you arrive in Franklinton, you may need to use a ride-sharing service (like Uber or Lyft) or a local taxi service to reach Bogue Chitto State Park, as public transport may not directly reach the park. The distance from the Franklinton bus station to the park is about 10 miles, and ride-sharing costs may vary, typically ranging from $10 to $20.
