Scenic beauty and wildlife abound on all hiking trails. Additional information and advice about Arkansas hiking trails can be obtained from each park.
The Arkansas State Parks offer a wide variety of Arkansas hiking experiences. Devil's Den State Park offers the hike-in campsites on the Butterfield Trail, once the path of the Butterfield Stagecoach Line. For day hikes, the Waterfowl Way Trail at
Millwood State Park offers a level path with the possibility of seeing lots of wildlife including beavers at an active beaver lodge and an alligator "hole". For one state park that offers two types of hikes, try
Pinnacle Mountain. The Ouachita Trail up the east side of Pinnacle is rated strenous and offers adventerous climbers a wild day! The Kingfisher Trail winds through the floodplain of the Little Maumelle River and is a hard-surfaced loop with unique plants, wildflowers, birds and wildlife.
