Frog Bayou can be traveled either direction starting from Bidville Rd on the west side, or from FS 124 on the east side.

Starting on the west side, travel time to the falls is between 2-3 hours and features several narrow, overgrown sections that are sure to leave pinstripes if you are in anything bigger than a SxS. This side of the trail is intermediate and features water crossings, steep climbs and descents, washouts, mudholes and Kenney Cemetery.
