Review:
Located just a short drive across the Lake Pontchartrain Causeway Bridge from New Orleans, Fontainebleau State Park offers an enjoyable escape from the city. The state park features sandy beaches perfect for sunbathers and a converted railroad track that has been turned into a multi-use trail. The trail is popular among hikers, cyclists, and inline skaters.
The park features an interpretive nature trail with signs along the path identifying many of the plants and trees. The park and the nearby lake provide habitat for more than 400 species of birds, making Fontainebleau State Park the perfect place to take up bird watching. There are also several waterfront cabins available for rent.
