225 Insider’s Guide: Visit Ridgeland

Why We Love It


Just three hours from Baton Rouge is Ridgeland, a hidden treasure located just off the Natchez Trace Parkway. If you haven’t driven “The Trace,” it’s breathtaking in the fall and Ridgeland is the perfect place to stop along the way.

What’s New


The Ridgeland Scarecrow Trail is open October 2 through 31 at the Ridgeland Wildflower Fields. Visitors can take in the autumn vibes while walking among beautiful wildflowers and scarecrows created by locals. This is an awesome photo op, too.

Insider’s Secret


Enjoy the Dogmud Tavern, Ridgeland’s premiere board game tavern. The specialty cocktail menu is super creative; if you dig a pickle then the Pickled Bone drink is a must-try.
