Notice

Due to severely dry conditions, several county judges have issued burn bans. When fire conditions are high, no open flames are allowed in Arkansas state parks under a burn ban. This means no fires in the fire ring or for cooking. Charcoal only is allowed in an upright or the provided pedestal grill. To see the latest counties under a burn ban, check out the burn ban map. This changes frequently during the summer. Park superintendents also have the discretion to issue burn bans. Please call the park you are visiting directly with any burn ban questions.

You can find the latest COVID-19 updates from Arkansas State Parks on our COVID response page. If you have questions please email the park directly at [email protected].

What to know

A National Natural Landmark, Mammoth Spring is one of the world’s largest springs with nine million gallons of water flowing hourly. It forms a 10-acre lake then runs southward as the Spring River, a famous Ozark trout and float stream. Remnants of a mill and hydroelectric plant are part of Mammoth Spring’s history. The park also features an 1886 Frisco train depot and museum. Adding to the things to do here are a playground, picnic area, baseball field, walking trail, Arkansas Welcome Center, and gift shop.
