Landry Vineyards Concerts in West Monroe

Monroe-Ruston Area

This region is a true Sportsman’s Paradise featuring abundant outdoor activities alongside the comforts and entertainment of larger urban areas.

The cities of Monroe and Ruston and surrounding areas like Farmerville and Bastrop, offer many outdoor activities — follow a birding trail, cast a line in a crooked creek, hike the forested hills and lowlands, launch a canoe on a sprawling lake or bike along a winding path.

Step back in history at Poverty Point in Pioneer and marvel at the ingenuity of the monumental prehistoric earthworks and recovered artifacts. As the only UNESCO World Heritage Site in the state, Poverty Point is one of the most important archeological sites in North America. For insight into more recent history, stop by a military museum or catch a glimpse of the state’s agricultural past at the Louisiana State Cotton Museum in Lake Providence. In Monroe and West Monroe, enjoy the dining, shopping and antiques browsing, as well as the symphony, ballet and Broadway-style shows. In Ruston and Grambling, enjoy the university-town atmosphere, including exciting college sports, along with art galleries, studios and museums.
