The Louisiana Office of Tourism has scheduled a series of statewide Louisiana Birding Trail meetings as a follow-up to the original meetings held across the state on July 12-16, 2021.
Since the first meetings, much work on the Louisiana Birding Trail project has been completed. At these meetings, staff from the Louisiana Office of Tourism will present an update to the Louisiana Birding Trail project, such as birding site nominations; assessments of all nominated sites, presentation of the recommended birding trail sites and showing possible birding trail mapping and interpretive content for the website to be created.
The intent of the Louisiana Birding Trail project is to improve the visitors’ experience, maximize the value of Louisiana’s outdoor resources, open new visitor markets, and assist communities across the state to promote their respective areas to national and international visitors.
These public meetings allow for public feedback and input into the process and birding site recommendations. Upon approval of the recommended birding trails, birding sites, descriptions, maps and other content, the Louisiana Office of Tourism will use this information to construct a website to strategically market nature-based experiences focused on birding and outdoor recreation to domestic and international visitors.
