The Hot Springs National Park is the hottest tourist destination in Arkansas, but if you are looking for a literal “higher” level of fun, then get your hiking gears and set foot at Mount Magazine State Park.

Mount Magazine is Arkansas’s highest mountain. Its distinct sandstone-capped peaks are truly a sight to behold. The mountain is the site of the latest state park designed to preserve and promote the scenic beauty of Arkansas mountainside. The park offers several activities for guests. Visitors can camp at the 18 selected campsites in the park and be one with park’s fauna residents. For more adventurous people, the park also offers rock climbing spots, mountain biking, horseback riding, mountain biking and hang gliding. To rest their weary bones, visitors can stay at specialized lodge and cabins. These lodges do not only offer a place of refuge, but also panoramic views of the park.
