Chickasaw State Park (Alabama)
Chickasaw State Park is a locally managed public recreation area located on U.S. Route 43 approximately 4 miles (6.4 km) north of Linden in Marengo County, Alabama. The 520-acre (210 ha) state park was developed in the 1930s by members of the Civilian Conservation Corps on property that the state had owned since 1819. It was one of several Alabama state parks that either closed or saw curtailment of services in 2015 following state budget cuts.
