Haw Creek Falls Trail
Haw Creek Falls Trail is an out-and-back trail that takes you by a waterfall located near Hagarville, Arkansas.
Pam's Grotto Trail
Getting to this trailhead is the most difficult part. The small parking area/campground is located about a half mile east of the Haw Creek Falls Campground. You will see a pull off on the east side of the road where you can park your car.
Once you are ready to hit the trail you will cross the road from where you parked. You will see a small creek that flows underneath the highway, you will wan...
Backpack to the Natural Bridge
After you drive across the one-lane bridge and take the dirt road immediately after it, follow that dirt road until it begins to bend to the left. Park your vehicle in the turnoff on the right, and be sure to lock it and take (or hide) any valuables in it. Even though it’s relatively remote, random ATVs will occasionally whizz by (illegally), and since they’re already illegally driving around, ...

Camp at Mount Nebo SP
Mount Nebo State Park is just 12 miles southwest of Russellville, AR, home of Arkansas Tech University. With its proximity to the university and other large cities, it makes visiting Mount Nebo an easy trip. The last few miles on Country Road 155 takes you through switch backs up the mountain, and has a 24ft trailer haul limitation due to its very sharp turns. Keep in mind the elevation gain to...
Hike the Rim Trail at Mount Nebo SP
The official trailhead for the Rim Trail can be found on the north side of Country Rd 92, but it seems to be much easier to start the hike right behind the visitors center. There is more parking spaces and you can purchase any last minute items you may have forgotten before you start. To find the official trailhead however, you will pass the Visitors Center on your right from Country Rd. 155 an...
