The best time is early in the morning (6–9 a.m.) during the dry season (December to March), when there are more birds and fewer mosquitoes. Avoid rainy weekends. Our audio guide accompanies you at any time.

The trails are dirt paths and somewhat uneven, so they are not ideal for wheelchairs, although there are flat areas near the entrance. Contact the Department of Environment at (601) 379 5999 for options. Use our accessible audio guide from your mobile phone.
