Looking for specific areas/trails for an overnight backpacking hike within a day's drive of New Orleans (Northshore).

Drive west of Austin to Inks Lake. Beautiful, only 7 hrs away and has some great backpacking.

Sipsey Wilderness and Cheaha State park in Alabama have both been on my list of places to go. Both about 7 hours from Baton Rouge area.

Wild Azalea Trail near Alexandria, but it's pretty hot this time of year, better in the spring when the azaleas and dogwoods are in bloom.

Y'all stay out of my woods! And, if you don't, at least don't kill my rattlesnakes.

Another backpack camping trip in Kisatchie would be to hike Devil's Backbone Trail and camp at Kisatchie Creek. It's a good swimming hole in the area and pretty camping.

Can you briefly tell me about some of the trails in Sipsey/Bankhead? Parking, best trails, etc. I recently bought property on Smith Lake near Houston and want to get to learn the area.
