Caroline Dormon Trail Map - The Caroline Dormon Trail is 10.5 miles of horseback, hiking, or biking trail that is not a loop. The start of the trail is on FH 59 (Longleaf Scenic Byway) and the end is just short of the Kisatchie Bayou Recreation Complex. There is a connecting spur at Kisatchie Bayou but the best horse trailer parking and facilities is at the Caroline Dormon/Backbone Trailhead. Visitors to Caroline Dormon Trail can park at the Trailhead which is conveniently located just off the Longleaf Scenic Byway (FH 59).

Kisatchie Hills Wilderness Trails Map - includes the Turpentine Hill, Backbone, and High Ridge Trails: There are four separate wilderness trails that have three separate trailheads that are accessible from a vehicle. (Backbone Trail, Turpentine Hill, High Ridge, and Caroline Dormon) The Backbone Trailhead is located at what is also the Caroline Dormon trailhead and is equipped with a parking area, restrooms, trash receptacles, and an information bulletin board. The other two are trailheads that have limited parking and are equipped with traveler forms and a drop box for filled out information forms for your trip. Water is not readily available in the Wilderness so come prepared by bringing your own water or a filter and purifying tablets if you plan on staying multiple days in the Wilderness.
