Ozark National Forest

The enormous Ozark National Forest, which spans a significant portion of Arkansas, is frequently paired with the much smaller St. Francis National Forest and features stunning views and landscapes. The state's tallest mountains are located inside the former, and one of the tiniest yet most diverse woods in the nation is found within the latter.

Together, they offer more than 630 kilometers of hiking paths, nine swimming places, 23 campgrounds, innumerable picturesque drives, and picnic areas for guests to enjoy. They are very rugged and mountainous, with gorgeous old-growth woods and 600 kilometers of bubbling rivers and streams that cut through the thick undergrowth.

Ozark National Forest is a terrific spot to walk or mountain bike because of all the unspoilt, natural beauty there. On its lovely rivers, boating, swimming, and fishing are all enjoyable activities. In order to wake up to the majestic trees and surrounding beauty, many people camp in the forest.
