Muddy Bayou Landing

Muddy Bayou Landing in Deville, LaSalle Parish provides convenient access to Muddy Bayou and the surrounding bayou system. This ramp is well-suited for small to medium-sized boats and paddlers, with ample parking available. From this launch point, paddlers can access the Avoca Island Cutoff and explore nearby waterways including Bayou Sigur and Bayou Bijou, making it an excellent base for exploring the region's interconnected bayou network.

The landing provides a practical entry point for kayakers and canoeists looking to paddle Louisiana's bayou country. The proximity to Catahoula National Wildlife Refuge and the broader Ouachita-Black River system means paddlers can extend their trips into nearby protected areas. This location is ideal for those seeking a relatively accessible launch for exploring the slower-moving, shallow-draft bayou environment typical of east-central Louisiana.
