Explore the 50 Mile Trail of Treasure - Take a day trip around DeSoto Parish

What a better opportunity to see what’s great with DeSoto Parish than on the 50 Mile Trail of Treasure. Starting at 7:00am and lasting all day on October 14, 2023. You can travel from Stonewall, Louisiana down to Mansfield then over to Joaquin, Texas. Of course, starting in Joaquin is also acceptable. As you drive Highway 171 and Highway 84, you can stop off at any of the dozens of tents, stores, restaurants and more to find some sort of treasure. You’ll see tents and vendors in Stonewall, Grand Cane, Mansfield, Stanley, Logansport, and Keatchie. Don’t overlook the miles in between these cities. Occasionally, someone will set up a table with things to sell right outside their home along the route.

Along the route, you will find vendor after vendor. Once in a while, you might find a farmer’s market or a clothing boutique. Not to mention, you will find handmade crafts from pillows to clothes and home décor for everyone. Keep an eye out for home cooked baked goods or stop in at any restaurant to grab a bite to eat. You will need it to keep up your shopping stamina. 

Save time to visit Antique Adoption Trade Days in Keatchie during their two day annual event.  Free admission. Stop by our local vineyard and winery, Kickapoo Twist during your drive.  

If weather causes a delay for the Trail of Treasure, the make up day is October 21, 2023. For more information, check out the Facebook page.
