About this river

Skuna River

The Skuna River is approximately 130 miles long and flows through northeast Mississippi. It has a rich history as it was a vital transportation route for Native Americans and early settlers. The river is fed by various tributaries, including the Tallahatchie River and Yalobusha River. The Sardis, Enid, and Grenada Reservoirs were all created by dams along the Skuna River for flood control, hydroelectric power generation, and recreation. The river is also used for agricultural purposes, with farms and pastures lining its banks. Recreational activities on the river include fishing, boating, and camping. The Skuna River is an important natural resource in Mississippi, providing both economic and environmental benefits to the local communities.
