LeFleur's Bluff State Park

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

LeFleur's Bluff State Park is a state park in the U.S. state of Mississippi. It is located off of I-55 in Jackson. The park is named for Louis LeFleur, a French Canadian explorer who established a trading post on the banks of the Pearl River in the late 1700s called LeFleur's Bluff. This village eventually grew to become Jackson.

The park is located at 32°19′53″N 90°09′10″W / 32.33139°N 90.15278°W / 32.33139; -90.15278 ^[1]
