Driskill Mountain

Driskill Mountain is Louisiana's highest point at just 163 meters, a gentle wooded rise in the Ouachita Mountains that offers no summit views — the top is entirely covered by deciduous forest. The high point itself is marked by a small cairn, with a nearby Forest Service signboard noting the elevation and local regulations. The site draws a steady trickle of highpointers — hobbyists working to summit the highest point in every US state — for whom Louisiana ranks as one of the easiest checkmarks on the list. The walk to the top is short and well-maintained, requiring no special gear or fitness level.
