Reviews

A very special place

This is one of the prettier short hikes in Arkansas. It is a top Petti Jean Mountain, so has no steep climbs/descents, but is definitely 'out in the woods'. Wildflowers, big trees, fascinating rock formations, a natural bridge (arch), and a grotto with large rock overhang and waterfall. The only hazard is some tricky rock footing in a few places.
