LARiverParishes.com In Louisiana’s River Parishes, you’ll find uniquely flavorful aromas drifting from the gumbo pots and smokehouses along the Andouille Trail, in the delicate, curling smoke rising from a Perique tobacco cigar, and in the heat emanating from the riverside of Bonfire Country, where families gather around giant wooden structures set ablaze in this Christmas Eve tradition dating back to the 1700s. Our history, real and unvarnished, is felt in the landmark homes of New Orleans Plantation Country and the museums along the 1811 Slave Revolt Trail; offering compelling and authentic experiences which provide a stark, yet stunning, reminder of our complex past. Outdoorsy visitors can make adventure their destination in the bayous, swamps, and lakes of New Orleans Swamp Country. Fish the waters of the Catfish Capital of the World, hike on boardwalks raised over marshy swamplands, or kick back and enjoy a guided bayou tour through Manchac Swamp.
