The Cache River State Natural Area offers lots of interesting scenery and opportunity for recreation including paddling through its swampy terrain via a designated canoe trail. The trail travels through a cypress swamp that feels very rugged and wild. The trail is well-marked, however, making it easy to stay on the right path as you explore the jungle. There are some side trips and passages along the trail that offer more paddling opportunity. There is access lower on the river after the trail ends but the trail is not long and the water has very little current so paddling back to the put-in is the best option so shuttling of vehicles is not needed.
