This trail is one of the Rails to Trail's Hall of Fame trails. The trail well deserves this honor as it has great signage, well spaced rest stations with actual restrooms and water fountains and well maintained paved surface. I rode from my hotel in Hattiesburg (Day's Inn), accessing the trail just east of the I-59 overpass to the end of the trail in Prentiss. The trail goes through groves of pine trees and is very tranquil. The trail was lightly travelled on a hot weekday when I was riding. Hopefully more people visit this wonderful trail when the weather is cooler, as well as in the evenings and on weekends.

There is never a bad day when you visit the Hattiesburg Zoo! Some may think, well it's not a very big zoo, but it doesn't have to be to be outstanding! The grounds are well kept, the staff if friendly, and the spotlight is always on the animals. And the animals are always well cared for and healthy! The new additions being built for new animals coming soon are beautiful. The train and carousel are charming. The splash pad is great during the hot MS summers. The kids love the ropes course, and mining for gems is always a favorite. I promise you won't be disappointed. Like I said, there's never a bad day at the Hattiesburg ZOO.
