Great place to go birding or just enjoy nature.
There are rare Red-cockaded woodpeckers there. That are usually seen around the parking lot.

Big Branch is a very nice wildlife managment area.  I've hunted out there but I'd like to spend more time just exploring.  I've heard bird watching is great.  Maybe go out in the kayak, sounds like a great lazy afternoon.  It's a pretty sizeable area in st. tammany that is mostly located in lacombe and it seems to run slidell.  Whenever I got out in the boat off carr drive in slidell google picks up my location as big branch, not sure that entire area is big branch because I don't believe you can actually run boats in the managment area but I could be wrong.  I just know when I've gone duck hunting we used a boat to get to a certain point of lake road then we jumped it pirogues for the rest of the way to the wma.  Check out your local wma's and state parks, particularly with your kids.

Scenic, to start. Crabbing and fishing (Fresh and Saltwater fish). It's great just to BS,outdoors with neighbors and friends. 
FEDS run Big Branch,come and enjoy  (before they decide to 'frack-it' for oil).

Nice drive along Spanish Trail. There's a few Roadhouse Seafood restaurants along the way

I really think it is alligators. Being southern Floridian.  Did not see gators but nice little trail.  To early in year to see gators.
