Things to do in Arkansas, United States: The Best Other Outdoor Activities
Living up to its billing as “The Natural State”, the state is a nature wonderland with three national forests, nearly 9,000 miles of pristine streams and rivers, awe-inspiring settings in the Ozark and Quachita mountains and sparkling lakes.
The menu of vacation experiences is an exciting one. For great golf, spas, horse racing and the Hot Springs National Park, Hot Springs is the place to go. Outdoor enthusiasts love the Ozark Mountains where activities like canoeing, rafting, kayaking, fishing, hiking and rock climbing are popular. The mountain village of Eureka Springs, with its streets lined with Victorian homes, is brimming with boutiques, antique shops and art galleries. Wine enthusiasts love the Arkansas Wine Country, encompassing the towns of Paris, Ozark and Altus, where German style wines are produced. From its ancient mountains to the Delta flatlands leveled by the Mississippi River, the state has a diverse topography with numerous scenic drives. Try the Pig Trail, Ozark Highlands and Sylamore scenic byways in the Ozark National Forest designated by the U.S. Forest Service. Golfers love the state because greens fees are extremely affordable for great courses.

We're so glad we rented scooters through Black Jack Adventures, it made seeing the beauty of Eureka Springs so much fun!! And we were able to explore and discover so many beautiful sights that we didn't know about! Tony the owner was so accommodating and helpful and ensured we were comfortable with driving the scooters before setting out! We will definitely do it again next time we come along with seeing the The Great Passion play again!

A great little walk in the forest. Hiking trails along streams and woodland paths. But a word of caution; the park is new, the trails poorly marked and there are no trail maps so if you are not confident in land navigation you may be in for a long walk.

Although the river was too low to canoe, we got the day pass and spent the day wading and swimming. It was beautiful and wonderful. They let us know where a great swimming hole was and I thoroughly enjoyed watching all the fish! We loved it so much we came back the next day too!
