🌟 Exciting Progress on the Delta Heritage Trail! 🚴‍♂️🌲

Big things are happening for Arkansas's Delta Heritage Trail! 🙌 The Yancopin Bridge is nearing substantial completion and is expected to open for public use in early 2025. Plus, three new trail sections funded by the FY21 RAISE Grant are moving full steam ahead.

Hello, I'm new to hiking and planning my first hike on the Big Bluff Goat Trail. I'm a bit confused about where to park my car. I saw a few parking spaces, but most seem far from the starting point. The closest one, the Centerpoint Trailhead, has limited spots. Could you suggest any other nearby parking options?

Does anyone know of a place that offers long stay camping?

I’m working in booking a hiking trip to Arkansas with my buddies. We are from mid Missouri, so would like to keep it North half of Arkansas. We would like 3-8 mile hikes, and will probably do 4-5 hikes while we are down there, but won’t to stay in an air bnb. Any good ideas? Initially my thought is Jasper, but I don’t know much

Need a fishing buddy once in a while

I'm going camping in Arkansas the 3rd week of October. Taking my 2 sons, 15 and 10. I'm considering 3 places: Devils Den, Petit Jean, or Shady Lake. I'm looking for relaxation, seclusion, good hiking, and maybe some fishing. We want to take in nature and relax. Let me know which place is best for my considerations. Leaning towards Devils Den because of proximity to Fayeteville. Thinking maybe ending the excursion with a few hours poking around a cool, college town. I'm open to any recommendations and places that I haven't considered as well. Thanks in advance!

For years, Arkansas's mountain biking claim to fame was its International Mountain Bicycling Association EPIC Trails. In the last decade, bike parks, enduro, flow, and machine-built trails have taken over the mountain bike psyche. But the EPICs are still there, cross-country Xanadu's standing ready and inviting for adventurous mountain bikers. Find out more at the link below.

I need help finding camping sites good for inexperienced campers. I've been looking but not sure what I'm looking at. My preference is somewhere on the water with some personal space. I've visited (not camped )to the three sisters on lake Ouachita. But didn't like how close the tents were and the concrete slabs you put them on. I'm looking at willow Beach right now but still undecided.

Also any tips or advice for first timers would be appreciated. Thanks 💕

Are there any good trails that have some good elevation gain and even some scrambling mixed in to keep it spicy? Training for some big days in Colorado and wondering what might be in my backyard, even if its just a lot of repeats
