Bogue Chitto State Park (pronounced bo-guh chit-uh)[1] is a Louisiana state park located off Louisiana State Highway 25 south of Franklinton, in Washington Parish. The name Bogue Chitto is from the Choctaw language, bok chito, meaning big creek.[1] Bogue Chitto is a relatively recent addition to the Louisiana State Park system. It opened to the public on August 28, 2010, after a delay of approximately three months.[2]
