Make a stop on the Clear Creek bridge and admire the beauty of the rocky streambed. By the way, the multi-use trail Razorback Regional Greenway is also called Clear Creek Trail from here on and follows the course of the creek for a few miles.

This trailhead sits right along Highway 298 and is one of several access points for the Ouachita National Recreation Trail (ONRT). While there are no restrooms or drinking water here, there is a short spur trail leading to the Upper Fork Ouachita River—it is an excellent water source and a great spot to pitch a tent if you are thru-hiking the 223-mile trail.

The Ouachita National Forest, established by President Theodore Roosevelt in 1907 and initially named the Arkansas National Forest, covers an impressive 1.8 million acres in central Arkansas and southeastern Oklahoma. It is the oldest and largest National Forest in the Southern Region. The forest features a diverse mix of pine and hickory trees with over 700 miles of trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding. There are multiple developed recreation areas, scenic vistas, shooting ranges, historical sites, wilderness areas, and one national recreation area within the forest. Most of the developed recreation areas are open from April to September, although some sites remain accessible year-round. The Ouachita National Forest is breathtaking in every season, providing expansive views of mountains that stretch for miles.

Flatside Pinnacle stands at 1,550 feet and offers stunning panoramic views. The short 0.2-mile trail from the gravel road to the summit is clearly marked and relatively easy, though it does get rocky and a little steep at the end. At the top are some of the best views in the state, including Pinnacle Mountain and Rattlesnake Ridge to the east. On clear days, you may even spot Mt. Nebo, Petit Jean, and Mt. Magazine. It's a perfect spot to hang a hammock, have lunch, or simply enjoy some solitude. Dispersed camping is allowed here, making it an ideal spot for thru-hikers to unwind and soak in the scenery.

The Brushy Trail Complex combines Brushy Mountain, Mountain Top, Rockhouse, and Brushy Creek Trails, which, along with the Ouachita National Recreation Trail, offer a variety of fantastic loop-trail hiking options spanning from 3 to 12 miles. This area is picturesque, with flowing streams, waterfalls, unique geological formations, and peaceful woodlands. Entrance to the day use area and dispersed camping is free—just be sure you camp at least 100 feet away from any trail. Brushy Creek is a reliable water source for thru hikers exploring the ONRT, making it an excellent spot to spend the night during a long journey.

This trailhead sits right along Highway 7 with a relatively large parking area and trail registration box. There is no water or restroom here. It is an access point of Ouachita Trail that leads to Wolf Pinnacle, a popular destination for day hikers for its scenic views, and is commonly used as a supply drop for thru-hikers.

Queen Wilhelmina State Park offers some of the most breathtaking views in the state from its fully renovated lodge. Known as the original “Castle in the Sky,” originally built in 1898, the lodge is situated on the 2,681-foot Rich Mountain—Arkansas' second highest peak. The original lodge was built in the late 1800s as a Victorian resort named Wilhelmina Inn to honor the young Queen of the Netherlands, after Dutch investors helped fund the construction of the railroad system. The park includes 41 campsites, including five tent sites with water, one hike-in tent site, picnic areas, and several short hiking trails, and the lodge features 40 rooms, a restaurant featuring Southern cuisine, and a gift shop. Dogs are welcome except in the restaurant and the large hearth room.
