About Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park

Meeman-Shelby Forest State Park encompasses over 12,500 acres of hardwood bottomland area along the mighty Mississippi River 13 miles north of Memphis. The park features mature bald cypress and tupelo swamps, while many of its facilities sit atop the Chickasaw Bluffs, rising above the floodplain and shaded by towering oaks, American beech, hickory, and sweetgum. Home to 10 State Champion Trees, two National Champion Trees, and a variety of endangered and protected plant species, the park offers remarkable natural diversity. Visitors can extend their stay in a cabin or at the campground while enjoying hiking, biking, paddling, and fishing in this scenic river landscape.
