Start at the parking lot trailhead on Industrial Road. A Muddy
Creek Interpretive Trail sign is here that shows the route of the
trail. Head north on a paved path a few yards and come to a Y.
The right fork is a dirt road. Turn left (west) and continue follow-
ing the paved path. You will soon see the first of many signs de-
scribing the habitat you will be walking through.

The paved path comes to a T intersection with another paved
road. Cross the road to the north and enter the woods on a nar-
row footpath. Through this section you will be surrounded by
longleaf pines.

Come to a Y in the trail. A map here shows you where you are.
The right fork is the route you will be returning on. Take the left

boardwalks are very nice, with high railings. Through here you'll
see tupelo gum, sweet bay, elderberry, red maple, and bald
cypress trees.
