The Recreation and Park Commission for the Parish of East Baton Rouge, more commonly known as BREC oversees more than 170 parks in the Greater Baton Rouge Area. One of the parks BREC oversees is the Comite River Park, a secluded little park in Baton Rouge with an incredible little nature trail that’s ideal for both hikers and bikers. Grab your gear and let’s check it out:

Comite River Park clocks in at about 100 acres, stretching along the beautiful Comite River as well at Cypress Bayou.

If you're hiking the trail, we'd recommend you hike the trail in reverse, so you can spot any mountain bikers heading in the other direction.
Pets are welcome, so bring your furry friend along for the adventure!

Just be sure to keep them on a leash.
