Trail of Tears Campground

Relax and watch the waters of the great Mississippi River float by, or explore the Trail of Tears Campground on foot or horseback. This tranquil setting remains as a point of accessibility in learning about one of the saddest chapters in American history, where nine of the thirteen relocated Cherokee tribes crossed at the river. Because of its beautiful location along the river’s shoreline, Trail of Tears Campground is an amazing place to spot migratory waterfowl.
