Blowing Springs Park
This is a fun dirt loop (also great for mountain biking). This loop can be as long as 6.1 miles but also can be easily shortened. At the base of the spring there is picnic tables and a nice area to put your feet in the water. Needing to shorten your hike? The Blowing Springs park has a road that goes right down the middle while trails weaving up and around the road. Hopping down to the quiet road will give you a straight walk back to your car. This hike has some fun rock formations and a beautiful spring.

Shaddox Hollow Nature Trail
1.4 mile loop that stops half way at Beaver Lake, also has some cool rock features and a cave to explore. The first 1/2 mile of this loop trail follows a ridgeline, providing an easy hike. The trail then descends into Shaddox Hollow. The descent is rather steep in places. The trail winds along the creek through stands of hardwoods and native Ozark vegetation. Some interesting limestone bluffs are found along this section. After progressing up the creek, the trail begins the climb back to the trailhead. This climb can be strenuous in places.

BUFFALO NATIONAL WILDERNESS
**Dogs are not allowed in Buffalo National Forest**
Centerpoint to Goat Trail
Our absolute most favorite overlook in Arkansas. This has a STUNNING view!
Centerpoint to Goat Trail is a 5.9 mile heavily trafficked out and back trail .
The trail's destination is the Big Bluff overlooking the Buffalo River. It is considered the tallest along the Buffalo at over 500 ft. tall. The side trail that leads to an outcropping on the bluff is called the Goat Trail and is about 350 ft. tall. It is not recommended for kids or those afraid of heights. The trail is virtually all downhill on the way to the Bluff and Goat Trail. Consequently, plan extra time on the hike out as it's all uphill. You'll have a very scenic look over the Buffalo River valley, but exercise extreme caution as people have died falling off the trail.
Rating Level: Hard
Lost Valley Trail
Lost Valley Trail is 2.1 mile out and back.
Features a waterfall and cave. Bring a flashlight and be prepared to get wet and crawl through some tight spaces if you want to find the waterfall at the back of the cave. Worth it! Cave not recommended for those scared of tight spaces.
