Nestled between the scenic Ozark and Ouachita Mountains in west-central Arkansas, the Petit Jean State Park covers 2,658 acres on Petit Jean Mountain. The scenery is dramatic – expect to see large swaths of untouched forest, ravines, springs and waterfalls which are still as pristine as when they were discovered by French explorers around 300 years ago. You can spend a few days exploring the park from your base in the Campground, which offers 125 camp sites, or book a comfortable cabin. Activities in the park include hiking along a network of over 20 miles of trails, fishing on Lake Bailey, tennis, soft-ball, pedal-boats and wildlife watching.
