Went there on a Thursday from 1-3pm and it wasn't busy at all. At this time of day some lengths of the trail were in the sun, but I would say most of it was nice and shady.

The docking area appears to be bigger, too. It's much quieter and very relaxed on this side, too. I saw some of the trees cut down, but I think that was from the storm, and they had to be cut down. But as always, the positive side is that the eye can see the whole body of water.

There's also enough grassy areas to throw around a football or frisbee. Whenever we visit MS, we usually end up here at least once or twice with one or both of our daughters just to sit and talk while we enjoy the view of the water or the sunset. This would make the perfect place to have a family outing.

In the park, you'll find lots of grassy patches and trees providing plenty of shade. There are plenty of benches as well as little tables you can sit at with a friend. There's a big gazebo you could post up in with a big group of friends or coworkers. There's a large stage, and from time to time festivals and shows are hosted in Smith Park. There are water fountains in the park. At night, the park can get a bit sketchy but most of Downtown is empty at night anyway which is a bummer. During the day, this really is a lovely place to meet up with friends and share a picnic or just sit and enjoy the sunshine. I only wish there was bike parking inside the park!

This park is magical; one day I was researching parks in the area and stumbled upon this nature…read morecenter. I had no idea that it existed, but I am glad that it does. There isn't a ton of nature trails in the area or in the city of Jackson, but this place is a huge hidden gem. I felt at peace doing some morning hiking with my little one, Sneakers. We were the only ones in the park at 7:00 AM which is opening and we spotted deers grazing. It was beautiful. The trails are clearly marked and a few paths are accessible, except for the path leading to the Elephant Tree. That trail abruptly stops and doesn't follow through as the trail is covered with overgrown grass and trees. I came back with my boyfriend and he loved the park too. Every inch of the park is marked with informational nature facts. What I loved the most is that majority of the plants, trees, including the lichen is marked with names. If I tell you the amount of botanical or arboretums that I visited in my life fails to have this specific and minor detail is astounding. Thankfully Clinton Nature park did not disappoint to educate the masses on this note. They are actively teaching the people. I love that so much! The trails towards the left of the entrance even connects into nearby library which is a nice touch after reading a couple of books. In the evenings, the park doesn't get much attraction so hiking is a straight shoot and can be done at any pace. The left sided trails are more accessible, some with stairs, so not so much for the wheelchair bound. The park is maintained by a volunteer crew and I am sure they accept recommendations to make the space more accessible for all individuals to enjoy. I actually am planning to visit again the next time I'm in town. I love this nature park immensely. I hope more people can learn about this creative space and not sleep on it too much longer!

*SPLAT* "EWW... Oh…read morehell, what was that?" as you tromp your way down the gravel trail in the woods... thankfully you realize it wasn't a frog after all, just some strange remains of a nameless prehistoric looking insect. You move on... walking over bridges, through "gullies", around "loops" and eventually taking a wrong turn onto an "Indian Trail", or as I'd like to call it, a "bog" full of mud. If you get out of there alive you may be able to make it to the "butterfly garden" and over the pond bridge to safety... Until of course you sit down next to a giant black snake hanging out by the water and run past a group of first graders yelling "AH! OH MY GOD! I ALMOST SAT ON IT! ALMOST SAT ON THE SNAKE!" Be careful of the sneaky squirrels who like to hide in the bushes until you arrive so they can jump out and make much noise and scare you. They act like they are afraid but don't let them fool you, they know precisely what they are doing. If you kick every bush along the trail sometimes you get to surprise them instead. These are just some things you may encounter while walking on Clinton Nature Center trails... I walk here for an hour almost everyday now and it is a new adventure every time. Usually I am the only one here... And I can jog for a little bit without being made fun of. There are some places that you can continuously walk up and down hills if you want. I make myself seriously sore every time. There are many trails branching off too so you can tailor your route to your liking. They have a information center that has animals and exhibits that I haven't been in yet. Today there were approximately 30 six year-olds inside screaming and yelling, so needless to say I stayed far away... There's signs everywhere on the trails identifying types of plants and trees, historical sites (old trace's, postal routes, first African American school in Clinton), and lots of info on wildlife. Good place to bring kids or someone who's interested in nature.

There's a loop walking trail that's very nice and paved. If you come when the azaleas are in full bloom in March, it is so beautiful. Pink, white, light pink of azaleas all throughout the park. Seeing the large pond with the ducks is pure tranquility. It's so nice to relax while watching nature. There's a boardwalk that you can walk on. Clean restrooms on site under a pavilion. Huge parking lot too on both sides. I am telling you I was so amazed that a park like this exists here. I'd normally find a ton of parks like this in Houston. I'm glad the City of Flowood built this for the community. Amazing. I brought my boyfriend here and he loved it too! I didn't map out how many miles you can accumulate by walking the trail the first time, but I think that if you walk multiple times on the trail you can max out on 10k steps. Come check it out!
